Across The Wide Missouri Songtext
(J. Shirl/E. M. Drake)
My lady love, she stands a-waitin' far across the wide Missouri. On the banks I hear her callin' to me.
[Chorus:]
A-roll, a-roll a-ree, across the wide Missouri. [Repeat line]
For seven years I've been a-roamin'. Seven years I left the valley. Now I live just for my true love to see.
[Chorus]
I'm pushing on when dawn's a-breakin', goin' 'cross the wide Missouri where my love, she stands a-waitin' for me.
A roll, (a-roll a-ree), a roll a-ree, across the wide Missouri. [Repeat]
My lady love, she stands a-waitin' far across the wide Missouri. On the banks I hear her callin' to me.
[Chorus:]
A-roll, a-roll a-ree, across the wide Missouri. [Repeat line]
For seven years I've been a-roamin'. Seven years I left the valley. Now I live just for my true love to see.
[Chorus]
I'm pushing on when dawn's a-breakin', goin' 'cross the wide Missouri where my love, she stands a-waitin' for me.
A roll, (a-roll a-ree), a roll a-ree, across the wide Missouri. [Repeat]
