The Mississippi winds like a restless snake
Through muddy waters and the paths it makes
It whispers secrets as it flows along
A heartbeat steady like an old blues song
Her banks hold stories of a thousand years
Of laughter love and dried-up tears
Cajun spices drift through the Southern air
Life clings to the river without a care
Rolling down the Mississippi wide and free
Carving out the land like an endless sea
She carries all the hope and every dream
The mighty river knows what freedom means
Saw a steamboat puffing like a dragon's breath
Her paddle slicing through the river's depth
Fishermen casting lines where catfish play
As children chase the sun at the break of day
She's a mother a rebel and a winding road
A living legend through the tales she's told
Her waters gold though they run so brown
The Mississippi keeps on wearing her crown
Rolling down the Mississippi wide and free
Carving out the land like an endless sea
She carries all the hope and every dream
The mighty river knows what freedom means
