Crossin' The Mississippi Lyrics

Well, I'm a-crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight

I got a little lady named Susanna on the other side

And when that Memphis lady's on my mind

Well, you can see me headin' 'cross the Tennessee borderline

I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight

I got a good-payin' job in Little Rock, Arkansas

I am a hard-workin' guy, patriotic, and I don't break the law

But when my fantasies start to float

Well, I jump in the fog and it's down the road I go

I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight

Well, there's a devil a-drivin' this car down the highway

There's a burnin' in my body that I can't control

Red wine and a fun time and easy lovin'

That's why I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight

That's right

Well, there's a devil a-drivin' this car down the highway

There's a burnin' in my body that I can't control

Red wine and a fun time and easy lovin'

That's why I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight

Crossin' the Mississippi

Crossin' the Mississippi

Crossin' into heaven

Crossin' the Mississippi

Crossin' into heaven
