MERLE TRAVIS

- Missouri Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I often wish that I could see my ol' hometown once more
And the little school I went to with that little girl next door
I see that stopper bobbin' when the catfish start to bite
I see a blue sky framin' little clouds of snowy white

[Chorus]
Missouri, I hear you callin' me
Missouri, you never let me be
Missouri, I know I can't be free
My heart will yearn 'til I return
Missouri's callin' me
[Verse 2]
In memory I still can see that oak tree on the lawn
And hear again the birds that sing and woke me up at dawn
And I remember mornin's when I told my mother lies
So I could get a second helping of her apple pies

[Chorus]
Missouri, I hear you callin' me
Missouri, you never let me be
Missouri, I know I can't be free
My heart will yearn 'til I return
Missouri's callin' me

Missouri, I hear you callin' me
Missouri, you never let me be
Missouri, I know I can't be free
My heart will yearn 'til I return
Missouri's callin' me
