They call her Mississippi But she don't flow to me Spends her light on the Bayou But she don't come to see She's the one that makes my dreams They call her Mississippi but she don't flow to me The shape of her horizon Makes the morning sun When she puts her eyes on Each and anyone She's the one that makes me fall Midnight moon shines through it all She's the one that makes me fall Midnight moon shines through it all She's the one that makes my dreams They call her Mississippi but she don't flow to me They call her Mississippi but she don't flow to me
