across the wide missouri

my lady love she stands a waitin' far across the wide missouri

on the banks i hear her calling to me

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri

for seven years i've been a roamin' seven years i led the valley

now i live just for my true love to see

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri

i'm pushin' off when dawn is breaking goin' cross the wide missouri

where my love she stands a waitin' for me

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri

a ro a ro la lee across wide missouri
