Mississippi river
So big and wide
Blond haired woman
On the other side

Now she’s gone, gone
Gone and I don’t worry
’Cause I’m sitting
On top of the world

Saw her in Dallas
And El Paso
Come back baby
I need you so

Now that she’s gone, gone
Gone and I don’t worry
’Cause I’m sitting
On top of the world

Mississippi river
So big and wide
Blond haired woman
She's on the other side, other side

Now she’s gone, gone
Gone and I don’t worry
'Cause I’m sitting
On top of the world

Saw her in Dallas
And El Paso
Come back baby
I need you so

Now she’s gone, gone
Gone and I don’t worry
’Cause I’m sitting
On top of the world
