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)
