Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: Miss the Mississippi and You
Lyrics for Album: Roses in the Snow (Expanded Version) [Warner Bros] [2002]



(Bill Halley)



I'm growing tired of the big city lights

Tired of the glamor tired of the sights

In all my dreams I am roaming once more

Back to my home on the old river shore.



I am sad and weary far away from home

Miss the Mississippi and you, you

Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam

Miss the Mississippi and you.



Rolling the wide world over

Always alone and blue

Nothin' seems to cheer me under heaven's dome

Miss the Mississippi and you.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm growing tired of the big city lights

Tired of the glamor tired of the sights

In all my dreams I am roaming once more

Back to my home on the old river shore.



Mhm, mhm, mhm, mhm

Mississippi and you...
