Where you can hear a country song from far
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 the place they'd like to be
How many times before the song was ending
Love and understanding
Everywhere around

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
Every time I hear this song
Mississippi roll along
Until the end of time

Now the country song forever lost its soul
When the guitar player turned to rock and roll
And everytime when summer nights are falling
I will always be calling
Dreams of yesterday

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
Every time I hear this song
Mississippi roll along
Until the end of time

Every time I hear this song
Mississippi roll along
Until the end of time
