lyrics

Mississippi Water

There was music on the water
And there was something in the sand
I dug my feet right in
And there was someone I could see
So familiar through the trees
And there was me and this tune
And there was nobody else but you
I could’ve sworn that it was you
Sitting by the water as the river moved
I could‘ve sworn that it was you
I could’ve sworn I saw your hands
Dip into the Mississippi water singing
“Ah oh ah oh oh oh oh oh”
And the sound carried on the water
All the way to the banks
And the sound was your name
And that holy stream
Blessed by St. Paul and St. Louis
Down to New Orleans
Well it carried me
With your melody
Washed me clean
