Mississippi River

Marry me by the Mississippi River, baby Take the train to New Orleans Tell me that I'm yours forever

Marry me by the Mississippi River, baby Take the train to New Orleans Tell me that I'm yours forever

Soldier, fightin' to the end I'll never be alone again His love is endless As mighty as a weapon

Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o

Carry me to Frenchmen Street Then kiss me in a cemetery Ebony keys, and ivory By the white gate serenade me

Til the water starts rising And the levee overflows Sinners and saints gonna leave this place But together we'll fight the storm

Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o

My days of darkness The easy days are gone Washed away I need shelter in your arms

My dreams are drownin' Along with this old town Paradise is fallin' How do we get back home?

Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o
