Go,
Mississippi
Words and Music
by Houston Davis
Verse:
States may sing their songs of
praise
With waving flags and hip-hoo-rays,
Let cymbals crash and let bells
ring
Cause here's one song I'm proud
to sing.
Choruses:
Go, Mississippi, keep rolling
along,
Go, Mississippi, you cannot go
wrong,
Go, Mississippi, we're singing
your song,
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
Go, Mississippi, you're on the
right track,
Go, Mississippi, and this is a
fact,
Go, Mississippi, you'll never
look back,
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
Go, Mississippi, straight down
the line,
Go, Mississippi, ev'rything's
fine,
Go, MIssissippi, it's your state
and mine,
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
Go, Mississippi, continue to
roll,
Go, Mississippi, the top is the
goal,
Go, Mississippi, you'll have and
you'll hold,
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
Go, Mississippi, get up and go,
Go, Mississippi, let the world
know,
That our Mississippi is leading
the show,
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
