Medgar's knocking on the door, been gone so long
Set the table, we're gonna sing a song
On the Mississippi freeway
Mississippi free
Mississippi freeway, comin' home to me
Fannie's limping home but she's standing proud
Her voice is ringing so clear and loud
On the Mississippi freeway
Mississippi free
Mississippi freeway, comin' home to me
Leontyne and ida laughing in the den
Happy days, here they are again
Freeways coming from sea to shining sea
Freeways for you, you and me
Richard's coming home, been in Mexico and France
Everybody gather round, we're gonna sing and dance
Mississippi freeway
Mississippi free
Mississippi freeway, comin' home to me
