Crossin' The Mississippi Lyrics - Singles - Eddie Rabbitt

Well, I'm a-crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight 

I got a little lady named Susanna on the other side 

And when that Memphis lady's on my mind 

Well, you can see me headin' 'cross the Tennessee borderline 

I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight 

I got a good-payin' job in Little Rock, Arkansas 

I am a hard-workin' guy, patriotic, and I don't break the law 

But when my fantasies start to float 

Well, I jump in the fog and it's down the road I go 

I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight 

Well, there's a devil a-drivin' this car down the highway 

There's a burnin' in my body that I can't control 

Red wine and a fun time and easy lovin' 

That's why I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven 

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven 

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight 

That's right 

Well, there's a devil a-drivin' this car down the highway 

There's a burnin' in my body that I can't control 

Red wine and a fun time and easy lovin' 

That's why I'm crossin' the Mississippi into heaven 

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven 

Crossin' the Mississippi into heaven tonight
