Lyrics

J. shirl/e. m. drake

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)
