Verse1
Well The Mississippi Flows Through The Southland
In Many A Song And Rhyme
And I Guess I’d Do Well Ta’ Visit The Delta
Someday If I Get The Time.
Verse 2
But In The Land Of Sky Blue Waters
She Loved Me Then She Turned Me Loose
With The Other End Of The Mississippi River Blues
Verse 3
They Got The Blues Down In Louisi----Ana
They Sing Them Up In Memphis Town
Where The Muddy Water Flows And Everybody Knows
Its The Cradle Of That Mournful Sound
Verse 4
Ah, But Somewhere Up Near Lake Itasca
Where The Mighty River Starts To Move
I Got The Other End Of The Mississippi River Blues
Chorus 1
They Got The Honeysuckle Vines
I Got The Lonesome Pines
They Got Banjos On The Levee
I Got A Heart That’s Cold And Heavy
Yeah It All Ends Up In New Orleans
But This Is Where It All Begins
Verse 5
You Can Travel The Wide World Over
Anywhere You Care To Roam
But If You Ever Go Ta’ Northern Minnesota
Better Leave Your Heart At Home

‘Cause She’ll Love Then She’l Leave You Crying
And Brother You’ll Be Intro-Duced
To The Other End Of The Mississippi River Blues
Chorus 2
They Got Magnolia Trees,
Sweet Southern Breeze
I Got Ice And Snow,
Twenty-Six Below
But It All Ends Up In New Orleans
But This Is Where It All Be-Gins (Hold And Pause)
Verse 7
You Can Travel The Wide World Over
Anywhere You Care To Roam
But If You Ever Go Ta’ Northern Minnesota
Better Leave Your Heart At Home
Verse 8
‘Cause She’ll Love Then She’ll Leave You Crying
With A Feeling That You Can’t Shake Loose
Its The Other End Of The Mississippi River Blues
Its The Other End Of The Mississippi River Blues
