Hey Louisiana woman, Mississippi man 
C 
We get together every time we can 

The Mississippi River can keep us apart 
                             F           C 
There's too much love in the Mississippi heart 
                      F         C 
Too much love in this Louisiana heart 

C 
See the alligators all a waitin' nearby 
                    F              C 
Soon or later they know I'm gonna try 
C 
When she waves from the bank don't you know I know 
                          F             C 
It's goodbye fishin' line see you while ago 

With a Louisiana woman waitin' 

On the other side 

The Mississippi River 
       F       C 
Don't look so wide 

Well I thought I'd been loved but I never had 
                                    F           C 
Till I was wrapped In the arms of a Mississippi man 

When he holds me close it feels almost 
                            F          C 
Like another hurricane just ripped the coast 

If he can't come to me I'm gonna go to him 
                                F      C 
That Mississippi River Lord I'm gonna swim 

  (Hey Louisiana woman Mississippi man...) 

Well Mississippi River Lord it's one mile wide 
                          F     C 
And I gotta get me to the other side 

Mississippi man I'm losin' my mind 
                       F         C 
Gotta have your loving one more time 

I'm gonna jump in the river and here go 
                        F        C 
Too bad alligatior you swim too slow
