Across The Wide Missouri

My lady love, she stands a waitin' far across the wide Missouri On the banks I hear her callin' to me A roll, a roll a ree, across the wide Missouri A roll, a roll a ree, across the wide Missouri For seven years I've been a roamin' Seven years I left the valley Now I live just for my true love to see A roll, a roll a ree, across the wide Missouri A roll, a roll a ree, across the wide Missouri For seven years I've been a roamin' Seven years I left the valley Now I live just for my true love to see 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 A roll, a roll a ree, a roll a ree, across the wide Missouri
