Well, I'm gonna take a trip
Down the mighty, mighty, mighty Mississippi
I'm gonna sail my long ship
Since you give me the slip
ย
Honey, I never got a letter
Never heard a word in the mail
But that's alright with me, baby
I'm still on your trail
That's why I'm gonna take a trip
Down the mighty, mighty, mighty Mississippi
I'm gonna sail my long ship
Since you give me the slip
ย
Somewhere in the big city projects
You might be wishing that I was there
But all your bloodhounds coming, baby
That's why, mama, I don't want you to get scared
I'll be looking for your name
Down, down in the mud that got washed away
In the Louisiana flood
And that's why I'm gonna take a trip
Down the mighty, mighty, mighty Mississippi, now
I'm gonna sail my long ship
Since you give me the slip
ย
Somewhere in the big city projects
You might be wishing that I was there
But all your bloodhounds coming, baby
I said, mama, mama, don't be scared
'Cause I'll be looking for your name
Down, down in the mud that got washed away
In the Louisiana flood
And that's why I wanna take a trip, baby
Down the mighty, mighty Mississippi, now
ย
I'm gonna take a trip, now
Yeah, down, oh, down
