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
