Where you can hear a country song this fall
And someone plays a honky-tonk guitar
Where all the lights will go out, one by one
The people join the song and the wind takes it away
Where the Mississippi rolls down to the sea
And lovers found a place they'd like to be
How many times before the song was ending
Love and understanding, everywhere around
Refrain
Mississippi, I'll remember you
Whenever I should go away
I'll be longing for the day
That I will be in Greenville again
Mississippi, you'll be on my mind
Everytime I hear this song
Mississippi, you roll along until the end of time.
Now the country song, forever lost its soul
When the guitar player turned to Rock 'n' Roll
And everytime when summer nights are falling
I always will be calling,
Dreams of yesterday.
Refrain
Mississippi, I'll remember you
Whenever I should go away
I'll be longing for the day
That I will be in Greenville again
Mississippi, you'll be on my mind
Everytime I hear this song
Mississippi, you roll along until the end of time.
