4 horas da madrugada
Celei meu cavalo e fui
A galope pelas coxilhas
Seguindo a trilha do meu pai
E encontrei o Mississipi River
I wanna sing blues
Yeah I like my blues
Now I sing my blues Mississipi River
O sol nasceu e abraçou o pampa
Ouvi o canto do sabiá
Fiquei faceiro, barbaridade
Peguei a viola e me vi a cantar
E meu cavalo bebia água no Mississipi River
Do you wanna sing blues
Yeah, you like my blues
Now we sing my blues Mississipi River
Já bem mais tarde na baita soleira
Minha barriga se pôs a roncar
Olhei pro norte, era só fumaceira
Pensei comigo, vou averiguar
E atravessei nadando o Mississipi River
I wanna cross the river
Yeah, Mississipi River
There is food at other side
Of Mississipi River
