Take me far across the wide Missoury To reach where wild oak trees grow tall and slim To little hillside farm in Hopewell County Let me see my childhood playgroung once again It's been a long time since I've seen my homeplace Wonder if the trees still stand so tall Wonder they remember how I'm climbing and swing upon the limbs when I was small When I was just a child I played for hours On the banks of Southport Creek not far away Skipping rocks across the water walking barefoot through the meadow Watching daddy work the fields of new mown hay So take me far across the wide Missoury To reach where wild oak trees grow tall and slim Let me live again those happy childhood mem'ries Let me see my childhood playground once again Mom would always tell me don't go swimmin' Son there's turtles in that water mean as sin But I slipped far away behind the willows then as naked as jailbird I jumped in So take me far across... Oh let me see my childhood playground once again
