Lyrics

Hear that whistle, there goes the bell That means we're on our way All aboard boy, I'm feeling swell This is my happy day Paddle wheel, you're mighty mighty slow That's why I keep on shoutin', "Let her go!" Roll on you Mississippi, roll on Come on you lazy steamer, quit your stallin' and move along! Clear the river, here we come Watch her smoke boy Hear that engine hummin', lawdy! Take a look at that shore With the folks I adore There's a spot 'round that bend That's my home, my journey's end Come on you old man river, come on Roll on you Mississippi, roll! New Orleans, hello! Bye-bye New Orleans! Get along Goin' strong Baton Rouge Hold on! Say capt'n, tell me What's the next big town we'll see? I'm so excited I'm as happy as can be, oh! Roll on you Mississippi, roll on Come on, you lazy steamer, move on! Clear that river, here we come! Watch her smoke boy, hear that hum! There's a spot 'round that bend That's my home, my journey's end (Here we come!) Doggone you old man river, come on! Move on you lazy steamer, move on! Roll on, you Mississippi Roll on, you Mississippi, roll on!
