[C]Oh you Mississippi River, with [F]waters so deep and [C]wide
2
My [G7]thoughts of you keep risin', just like an evening [C]tide [C7]
3
I'm [F]just like a seagull that's left the [C]sea
4
Oh your [G7]muddy waters keep on callin' [C]me [C7]
5
CHORUS;
6
I'm gonna [F]pack my grip and head that way
7
You'll see me [C]hanging 'round again some day
8
'Cause I know [G7]that's the only way to lose
9
The Mississippi River [C] blues
10
I've often ridden on your bosom [C7]
11
From [F]Memphis down to New Or[C]leans
12
Floating [G7]over muddy waters, drifting through familiar [C]scenes [C7]
13
And when I [F]hear that whistle of an old steam [C]boat
14
Down that [G7]Mississippi River again I'm a-going to [C]float [C7]

Repeat Chorus.
