----------------------------------------------------

 Well, me and Mark Twain were having us a ball

 Telling each other lies, floating down from
Hannibal

 With a bottle and a worm and a cane pole

 We were fishing for secrets where the catfish
crawl

 

 And the Mississippi River's flowing
downstream

 Meet the Gulf of Mexico somewhere downstream

 Meet the Atlantic Ocean somewhere downstream

 Gonna meet you in the water somewhere
downstream

 

 Well, we picked up Harry Truman floating down
from Independence

 We said "What about the war?", he said "Good
riddance"

 We said "What about the Bomb, are you sorry that
you did it?"

 He said "Pass me that bottle, and mind your own
business"

 

 And the Mississippi River's flowing
downstream

 Meet the Gulf of Mexico somewhere downstream

 Meet the Atlantic Ocean somewhere downstream

 Gonna meet you in the water somewhere
downstream



 Well, we're rounding St. Louis and heading for
the coast

 When we pick up Chuck Berry in a little
rowboat

 With one oar in the water and one in the air

 A lightning rod for a white guitar

 

 And lightning struck once, and lightning struck
twice

 And I said "If there's a God, He sure ain't
nice"

 And Chuck said "God is an Indian giver

 I don't trust nothing but the Mississippi
River"

 

 And the Mississippi River's flowing
downstream

 Meet the Gulf of Mexico somewhere downstream

 Meet the Atlantic Ocean somewhere downstream

 Gonna meet you in the water somewhere downstream
