Where you can hear a country song from far 
And someone play the 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 Grennville again 
Mississippi, you'll be on my mind 
Everytime I hear this song 
Mississippi roll along 
Until the end of time 

Now the country song for ever lost its soul 
When the guitar player turned to rock & 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
