Hey, Louisiana woman, Mississippi man,
we get together every time we can.
The Mississippi River cant 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,
soon 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.
CHORUS
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 a-ripped the coast.
If he can't come to me, I'm a-gonna go to him,
that Mississippi River, Lord, I'm gonna swim.
Hey, Louisiana woman, Mississippi man,
we get together every time we can.
The Mississippi River cant keep us apart.
there's too much love in this Mississippi heart,
too much love in this Louisiana heart.
Well, the Mississippi River, Lord, it's one mile wide,
and Im gonna get me to the other side.
Mississippi man, I'm a-losin' my mind,
gotta have your loving one more time.
I'm gonna jump in the river and here I go,
too bad, alligator, you swim too slow !
CHORUS
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart,
too much love in this Louisiana heart, hey!
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart,
too much love in this Louisiana heart
