Mississippi Moon(Alternate Take) - Jimmie Rodgers

作词：Elsie McWilliams/Jimmie Rodgers

作曲：Elsie McWilliams/Jimmie Rodgers

I've heard all about the tune

thats called the alabama moon

But the mississippi moon is just as bright

And I can't forget the time

When I asked you to be mine

But the moon was shining on that happy night

And you promised me

then you would wed me in june

Thats why I love the mississippi moon

Oh the mississippi moon is smiling down tonight

And love just seems to fill the air

The wipplewills are plitting in its mellow light

And calling to be lovers there

Let us stroll once again down to dear or lovers lane

Where nature seems to softly croon

All the hearts will be so light

while we wander there tonight

Underneath that mississippi moon

Yodel layee oh layee

Yodel layee oh layee

Yodel layee oh layee oh leedel layee

Many years have come and gone

since I met you there alone

But tonight I'm thinking just as much of you

As I did when hand and hand

We wandered in that magic land

Where we gave our pledge to love each other true

Come and go back with me

To that spot in memory

Just to see again that mississippi moon

Oh the mississippi moon is smiling down tonight

And love just seems to fill the air

The wipplewills are plitting in its mellow light

And calling to be lovers there

Let us stroll once again down to dear ol lovers lane

Where nature seems to softly croon

All the hearts will be so light

while we wander there tonight

Underneath that mississippi moon

Yodel layee oh layee oh leedel layee
