I Can't Recall My Mother
I Don't Remember Dad
Mister And Mississippi Was All I Ever Had
Oh, I Was Born To Wander
I Was Born To Roam
And Mister And Mississippi Made Me Feel At Home

My Cradle Was The River
My School A River Boat
My Teacher Was A Gambler
The Slickest One Afloat
My Teacher Was A Gambler
The Slickest One Afloat
He Taught Me Not To Gamble On A Petticoat

Oh, I Was Born To Wander
I Was Born To Roam
And Mister And Mississippi Made Me Feel At Home

Oh, Darlin' How I Love You
What More Is There To Say
I Love You Like A Barefoot Girl
Loves The Summer Day
The Way A Wanderin' Gypsy
Loves The Changing Sea
Just Like The Restless River
Loves Old New Orleans

I Love A Tiny Village
A Quiet Country Town
A House, A Little Garden
With Kiddies Runnin' 'round
You'd Be A Faithful Husband
I'd Be A Trusty Friend
Until I Heard That Steamboat
Comin' 'round The Bend

Oh, I Was Born To Wander
I Was Born To Roam
And Mister And Mississippi Made Me Feel At Home

Oh, I Was Born To Wander
I Was Born To Roam
And Mister And Mississippi Made Me Feel At Home
