Where you can hear a country song from far And someone plays the honky-tonk guitar Where all the lights will go out one by one The people join the sun and the wind takes it away Where the mississippi roads 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 river 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 it´s soul When the guitar player turned to rock & roll And everytime when summernights are falling I always will be calling dreams of yesterday
