Lyrics

I'm growing tired of the big city lights Tired of the glamor and tired of the sights And in my dreams I'd been roaming once more Far from my home on the old river shore I am so sad and weary far away from home I miss the Mississippi and you Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam I miss the Mississippi and you Roaming the wide world over Always alone and blue, so blue Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome I miss the Mississippi and you Roamin' the wide world over Always alone and blue, so blue Mockingbirds singin' 'round the cabin door I miss the Mississippi and you Longing for my homeland But it won't show I miss the Mississippi and you Miss the Mississippi and you
