Son of a river man muddy water's all I've known

I was born out on the banks mama died

when I was young

Just before my daddy left he hollered out at me

Son you're a child of the Mississippi

My schoolin' was a steamboat

and I was educated well

On a sternin' double wheeler

where I learned my rebel yell

Then I started roustaboutin' at the age of thirteen

Lord I'm a child of the Mississippi

I was raised on the river muddy

water gonna carry me home

She's gonna rock me

like a baby rollin' in her sweet lovin' arms

Just a barefoot boy born in Dixieland

Brought up on the banks to be a river man

Sweet child of the Mississippi

I know every stretch of river

I know every railroad bridge

From up in St Paul Minnesota down south

to the Memphis pyramid

Lord she's proud and she's lonesome

and I've known since I was a kid

I was a child of the Mississippi

I was raised on the river muddy

water gonna carry me home

She's gonna rock me

like a baby rollin' in her sweet lovin' arms

Just a barefoot boy born in Dixieland

Brought up on the banks to be a river man

Sweet child of the Mississippi

Well I sure miss my mama and I even miss ol' Pa

But I love that muddy water most of all

I was raised on the river muddy

water gonna carry me home

She's gonna rock me

like a baby rollin' in her sweet lovin' arms

I was a barefoot boy born in Dixieland

Brought up on the banks to be a river man

Sweet child of the Mississippi

Sweet child of the Mississippi

Sweet child of the Mississippi

Sweet child of the Mississippi
