Where you can hear a country song from far
And someone play the honky-tonk guitar
Where all the lights will go out one by one
The people join the song
And the wind takes it away
Where the Mississippi rolls down to the sea
And lovers found the place they'd like to be
How many times before the song was ending
Love and understanding
Everywhere around
Mississippi, I'll remember you
Whenever I should go away
I'll be longing for the day
That I will be in Grennville again
Mississippi, you'll be on my mind
Everytime I hear this song
Mississippi roll along
Until the end…
