Mississippi
Mississippi river I'm goin' down to New Orleans
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
And it flows right by my Tennessee home
Where history was made by steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
A way down yonder in the land of cotton
Folks like mine are near-forgotten
What a wonderful thrill, It is to be, down in Memphis, Tennessee
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
By the M, I, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
Watch it flow and ride along
Where history was made by steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
A way down yonder in the land of cotton
Folks like mine are near-forgotten
What a wonderful thrill, It is to be down in Memphis, Tennessee
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin', down to New Orleans
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
And it flows right by my Tennessee home
Where history was made by steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
A way down yonder in the land of cotton
Folks like mine are near-forgotten
What a wonderful thrill, It is to be, down in Memphis, Tennessee
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
By the M, I, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin' down to New Orleans
Watch it flow and ride along
Where history was made by steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
A way down yonder in the land of cotton
Folks like mine are near-forgotten
What a wonderful thrill, It is to be down in Memphis, Tennessee
About a M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Crooked letter, crooked letter, I
Humpback, humpback, I Mississippi
Flowin', down to New Orleans
