Well I thought I'd been loved but I never had
F# C#
Till I was wrapped in the arms of a Mississippi man

Like another hurricane just ripped the coast
 
If he can't come to me I'm gonna go to him
F# C#
That Mississippi River, Lord, I'm gonna swim

And I'm gonna get me to the other side

Gotta have your loving one more time
 
I'm gonna jump in the river and here I go
F# C#
Too bad alligatior you swim too slow

Hey, Louisiana woman, Mississippi man
C#
We get together every time we can
 
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart

There's too much love in this Mississippi heart

Too much love in this Louisiana heart
F# C#
But there's too much love in this Mississippi heart

Too much love in this Louisiana heart
