Song title: Patti Page - Mister And Mississippi

Edit By: 216.73.216.149

I can't recall my mother
 I don't remember dad
 Mister and Mississippi was all I ever had
 Oh, I was born to wander
 I was born to roam
 And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

My cradle was the river
 My school a river boat
 My teacher was a gambler
 The slickest one afloat
 My teacher was a gambler
 The slickest one afloat
 He taught me not to gamble on a petticoat

Oh, I was born to wander
 I was born to roam
 And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh, darlin' how I love you
 What more is there to say
 I love you like a barefoot girl
 Loves the summer day
 The way a wanderin' gypsy
 Loves the changing sea
 Just like the restless river
 Loves old New Orleans

I love a tiny village
 A quiet country town
 A house, a little garden
 With kiddies runnin' 'round
 You'd be a faithful husband
 I'd be a trusty friend
 Until I heard that steamboat
 Comin' 'round the bend

Oh, I was born to wander
 I was born to roam
 And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh, I was born to wander
 I was born to roam
 And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home
