Red Foley — Mississippi lyrics

Lyrics

By The M I crooked letter, crooker letter, I crooked letter, crooked letter I Hump-back, hump-back I of Mississippi flowing down to New Orleans
It flows right by my Tennessee home where history was make by Steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
Way down yonder in the land of cotton, folks like mine are ne’er forgotten
What a wonderful thrill just to be down in Memphis, Tennessee
By The M I crooked letter, crooker letter, I crooked letter, crooked letter I Hump-back, hump-back I of Mississippi flowing down to New Orleans
By The M I crooked letter, crooker letter, I crooked letter, crooked letter I Hump-back, hump-back I of Mississippi flowing down to New Orleans
It flows right by my Tennessee home where history was make by Steamboat Bill
M-E-M-P-H-I-S, Memphis is the town I mean
Way down yonder in the land of cotton, folks like mine are ne’er forgotten
What a wonderful thrill just to be down in Memphis, Tennessee
By The M I crooked letter, crooker letter, I crooked letter, crooked letter I Hump-back, hump-back I of Mississippi flowing down to New Orleans
