I m away down river from the past
On the Mississippi River raft
I was playing my music in the night
Songs that make the catfish bite
There s a sun tanned lady by my side
She s like a lazy river ridge
She s my new and better half
On the Mississippi River raft
We re coming from troubled lives
Holding down a paradise
I m holding her my heart is beatin fast
On the Mississippi River raft
Our companions are the fish and the stars
From the past and harm against a big war
Just a river and her sweet voice
We found a life we both enjoy
We ve got peace in our lives at last
On the Mississippi River raft
We re coming from troubled lives
Holding down a paradise
I m holding her my heart is beatin fast
On the Mississippi River raft
On the Mississippi River raft
On the Mississippi River raft
