OH MISSISSIPPI song lyrics by Joel Sattler
Under a wide and open sky
Using Orion for a guide
Oh Mississippi
Mississippi
Sailing the night from town to town
500 miles up and down
I hear her calling me
Calling to me
And I know if I only listen hard and long
I'll understand the words in the everlasting song
She is the mother of all waters
So strong
So strong
So strong
The paddlewheel is slapping time
Far up the river we will climb
Cutting through history
The heart of the country
I feel the current as she rise
Riding the ocean of her eyes
Mighty Mississippi
Oh Mississippi
And I don't know if I'll ever reach the end
But if I do I'll turn around and start again
Who know what we'll find when come round the next bend
My friend
My friend
My friend
The Mississippi
is more than you'll ever know
The stars above
the mighty heartbeat down below
Oh Mississippi....
