1
Way down on Mississippi big river
2
Came a mighty big man
3
He built a town on that river
4
And owned everything in that glen
5
He fell in love and married a girl
6
She was young and mean, and wild
7
He tried to tame her but it couldn't been done
8
It was too late to Devil's own child
9
Big river
10
(Keep on growing, growing)
11
Big man
12
(Keep on growing, growing)
13
Big river
14
(Keep on growing, growing)
15
Big man
16
(Keep on growing, growing)
17
The love you have for greed and power
18
Surely pull you down
19
You lose your friends, you lose your soul
20
In that darn city to big man's town
21
Big river
22
(Keep on growing, growing)
23
Big man
24
(Keep on growing, growing)
25
Big river
26
(Keep on growing, growing)
27
Big man
28
(Keep on growing, growing)
29
Look down in the water all around you
30
Hear the steamboat whistle blow
31
Come on big man, get a moving
32
You got a long way to go
33
Just like a big river
34
Big man, you gotta move on and on
35
Take your money, keep your dough
36
You're gonna be left all alone
37
Big river
38
(Keep on growing, growing)
39
Big man
40
(Keep on growing, growing)
41
Big river
42
(Keep on growing, growing)
43
Big man
44
(Keep on growing, growing)
