Mr. And Mississippi

Mr. And Mississippi

I can't recall my mother, I don't remember dad
Mr. and Mississippi was all I ever had
Oh I was born to wonder, I was born to roam
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
Oh I was born to wonder, I was born to roam
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
(Made him feel at home)

My cradle was the river, my school a riverboat
My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat
(His teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat)
And he taught me not to gamble on a penny coat
Oh I was born to wonder, I was born to roam
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
(Made him feel at home)

Oh Betty May I love you, I love you Betty May
I love you like a barefoot boy loves a summer day
The way a wandering gypsy loves a changing scene
Just like the restless river loves New Orleans
Oh I was born to wonder, I was born to roam
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
(Made him feel at home)

I'd love a tiny release, a quiet country town
A house, a little garden with kiddies running 'round
I'd be a faithful husband, I'd a be trusting friend
Until I heard that steamboat coming 'round the bend (Woo woo)
Oh I was born to wonder, I was born to roam
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
(Oh he was born to wonder, he was born to roam)
And Mr. and Mississippi made me feel at home
(Mr. and Mississippi made him feel at home)
