Dear all. Searching the internet for this song, I came across this discussion. I heard the song many many years ago. I realized that I've always remembered the 7th line a bit differently. Could be right?
best, Lid.
Old, old Mississippi, many you have seen,
Old, old Mississippi good friends we have been,
Oh, you know my yearning burning in my heart,
And you know my sadness when we part
Old, old Mississippi rolling to the sea,
Old, old Mississippi way down carry me.
Take away my sorrows, help me getting strong,
All the time of weeping was too long.

Good morning everyone,
I have searched very long and now I have the lyrics from the mississippi song, I think.
here a summary:
Old, old Mississippi, many you have seen,
Old, old Mississippi good friends we have been,
Oh, you know my yearning burning in my heart,
And you know my sadness when we part. / depart.
Old, old Mississippi rolling to the sea,
Old, old Mississippi way down carry me.
Take away my sorrows, make me gay and strong,
All the time of weeping - much to long.
Okay, so long!

I believe you have the right version:Cucumberface

- ... was too long
Thank you
