The Boswell Sisters - Roll On Mississipi Roll On Lyrics

Hear that whistle, there goes the bell.
That means we’re on our way
All aboard boys, I’m feelin’ swell.
This is my happy day.

Paddlewheel, 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, quite your stallin’ and move along.
Clear the river, here we come. Watch her smoke boys
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 on.

New Orleans, hello! Bye bye, New Orleans
Gettin’ long, goin’ strong.. Baton Rogue, so long.

Say Cap’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.
What 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!
