The River - Mississippi, Take Me Home lyrics

Verse 1 Oh, I've never known a feeling Oh, I've never known a place That makes me feel I'm home again When I'm a thousand miles away Those bright lights in New York City They shine bright from far away Oh, but nothing comes and steals my heart Like that Mississippi way Chorus Oh, I wanna go back home Oh, I wanna go back home Mississippi, take me home Verse 2 Oh, there's something bout that sunset sky Drifting on across the hill And magnolia leaves are dancing With that whispering autumn breeze But for every reason not to go There's a thousand more to stay Like that feeling that your family brings A love not taken away. Chorus Oh, I wanna go back home Oh, I wanna go back home Mississippi, take me home Oh, I wanna go back home Oh, I wanna go back home Mississippi, take me home Won't you take me home Bridge Let's go, let's go home Let's go, let's go home Let's go, let's go home We're Mississippi bound Chorus Oh, I wanna go back home Oh, I wanna go back home Mississippi, take me home
