Hey, Louisiana woman
Mississippi man
We get together every time we can.
The Mississippi River can keep us apart
There's too much love in
the Mississippi heart
Too much love in this Louisiana heart.
See the alligators all a waitin' nearby
Sooner or later they know I'm gonna try.
When she waves from the
bank don't you know I know
It's goodbye fishin'
line, see you while ago.
With a Louisiana woman
waitin' on the other side
The Mississippi River
don't look so wide.
Louisiana woman
Mississippi man
We get together every time we can.

There's too much love in
the Mississippi heart.
Too much love in this Louisiana heart.
Well, I thought I'd been
loved but I never had
Till I was wrapped In the
arms of a Mississippi man.
When he holds me close it feels almost
Like another hurricane
just ripped the coast.
If he can't come to me
I'm gonna go to him
That Mississippi River
Lord I'm gonna swim.

And I'm gotta get me to the other side.

Too bad alligatior ya swim too slow.
