Chorus
-6 6 5 -4 4 5 5
I can't recall my mother.
5 -4 4 4 -4 4
I don't remember Dad.
4 4 4 4 -6 6 5
Mister and Mississippi
4 -4 4 -45 -4
was all I ever had.
6 -6 -6 -6 -5 7 7
Oh, I was born to wander,
6 6 6 -6 4
I was born to roam;
3 4 4 4 4 -6 6 5 -4 -5 5 -4 4
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home.
verse
-6 6 5 -4 4 5 5 5 -4 4 4-4 4
My cradle was the river, my school a riverboat.
-5 6 5 -4 4 5 5 3 -4 4 4 -4 4
My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat.
6 -6 -6 -6 -5 7 7 -6 6 6 6 -6 4
My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat.
3 4 4 4 -6 6 5 -4 -5 5 -4 4
He taught me not to gamble on a petticoat.
repeat tabs above
Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home.
Verses
Oh, darling How I love you, what more is there to say.
I love you like a barefoot girl loves a summer day.
The way a wandering gypsy loves the changing sea--
Just like the restless river loves old New Orleans.
chorus
I love a tiny village, a quite country town.
A house, a little garden, with kiddies running 'round.
You'd be a faithful husband, I'd be a faithful friend
Until I heard that old steamboat coming 'round the bend.
chorus
