Mother Mother - Mississippi lyrics
[Mother Mother - Mississippi lyrics]
To the universal questions
I don't need that extra
Existential transcendental tension
I just wanna be a river, baby
Spillin' to the ocean
Would you be a river with me, honey?
Be my little Mississippi
And I could get all up in arms
And I could battle with frustration
About all the mystery surrounding
Reason for creation
But, I soon wanna be a river, baby
Giving to the ocean
Would you be a river with me?
Maybe we could be the old Euphrates, yeah
So we won't be staying all that dry
That's fine by me, I dig a water slide
Just float with me down a mountainside
Yeah, it's gonna be alright
I just wanna be a river, baby
Giving to the ocean
I could place a thousand words
Upon some designated insert
I could probe the ancient proverbs
For a providencial advert
But instead I'm gonna be a river baby
Just giving to the ocean
Would you be a river with me?
Be my little Mrs mississippi
