Songtext von Mississippi River

Marry me by the Mississippi River, baby Take the train to New Orleans Tell me that I'm yours forever Marry me by the Mississippi River, baby Take the train to New Orleans Tell me that I'm yours forever Soldier, fightin' to the end I'll never be alone again His love is endless As mighty as a weapon Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Carry me, to first Then kiss me in a cemetery Ebony keys, and ivory By the white gate serenade me Til the water starts rising And the levee overflows Sinners and saints gonna leave this place But together we'll fight the storm Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o My days of darkness The easy days are gone Washed away I need shelter in your arms My dreams are drownin' Along with this old town Paradise is fallin' How do we get back home? Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o Never gonna let you go Never gonna let you go-o-o
