Pa Misisipi kuģīt's peld
      A           F#m	
Un lai viņš aizpeld laimīgs.
      A                             D
Man pa Gauju plosti peld
 D                       A
Un mākonītis daiļš.
      D              E  A
Mākonītis mākonīt's,
Mākonītis brīnum
Balts un brīnumtīrs,
Un brīnumjauks, un brīnumžigls.
Ak, pie Rio Negro stāv
Maza mājiņa krastmalā, bet
Skaista mana brāļa sēta,
Skaista, vēl skaistāka.
Pār visāmi sētiņām,
Ja tepat pie Gaujas,
Ja tepat pie mūsu upes -
Mūsu likteņ' Daugavas.
Viņas, māmuliņas,
Viņas, mūsu upes...
Lai tek Volga, lai tek Dona,
Katrai savas rūpes.
Bet man sava Gauja ir.
Vai tāpēc esmu hipijs? Lai!
Misisipi kuģīt's, lai viņš peld
Pa Misisipi, lai!

Peld pa zilo Donavu, pa Elbu
Vai Misūrī peld.
Pa manu mūžu Gauja tek un
Aiztek zilā jūriņā.

Aiztek zilā jūriņā,
 A               D
Jūras baltā augstumā.
 A               E         A
