  • Where you can hear a country song song from far
    and someone plays the honky-tonk guitar
    Where all the lights will go out one by one
    the people join the sun
    and the wind takes it away
    Where the Mississippi falls down to the sea
    and lovers found the place thhhey'd like to be
    how many times before the song was ending
    love and understanding
    everywhere around
    Mississippi, I'll remember you
    whenever I should go away
    I'll be longing for the day
    that I will be returning again
    Mississippi, you'll be on my mind
    everytime I hear this song
    Mississippi roll along
    until the end of time
    Now the country song for ever lost its soul
    when the guitar player turned to rock & roll
    and everytime when the summernights are falling
    I will always be calling dreams of yesterday

    I remember listening to this when it reached number 1 in the UK. Even though I was a punk, I secretly loved it. I have now listened to all their stuff on You Tube and fell in love with them. A brilliant band, beautiful women and a cracking voice. They have more talent in their little fingers than most of todays manufactured garbage!!!

    Tonny Wille and sisters Betty Dragstra and Marianne Hensen never stop delivering their 1976 blockbuster hit "Mississippi." in this classic "CZcams" clip. The Dutch group PUSSYCAT propelled "Mississippi" to the only #1 rock hit by a Dutch group in the U.K. TW simply nails every passage in this unforgettable hit that sold 5,000,000 records world wide. Witness the emotion Tonny taps into in 860,019 "You Tube" viewers who recall the memories of 1976 like they were yesterday. TW - you are fabulous

    What a truly amazing song. I have the vinyl version from when it was first released and it still makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck when I hear it again. I think that the lead singer Tonny has one of the most distinctive voices I have ever heard and so powerful. Certainly brings back some wonderful memories. Fantastic!

    Super memorable song. A nice lady engaged us to play at her music pub in Brunssum, Netherlands. Then, she said "Oh, you might remember me. I was in a band called Pussycat in the 70s!" It was Marianne, the bassist from Pussycat who ran (she might still) Marianne's Café. When we played, Toni turned up to see us. She looked great and had her little dog with her. We'd only seen her recently on German telly on an Oldies' tribute programme. She was very friendly and complimentary, saying what we were playing sounded great. It was a really friendly gig with a fantastic ambiance!

    I remember in the 70th, my Mother and me we were very unhappy, it was a big problem to get this record in Germany. This Record was in all shops sold out, and that for a long time. A Owner of a recordshop told us that they get not enough records from the company then the people ask for it.
    This Record was a so big Hit in Germany , and it's a evergreen for ever.

    This is a Dutch group. Great girls as far as I can see, Sisters: the youngest one has an amazing voice. The other two are great harmonisers. They sang, and sang well, some great songs: both originals and covers. I have been amazed, I like them and am glad I discovered them. It is easy to scoff at a distance of over 30 years.

    Germanophile. Unfortunately too many people are brainless in this world, or just cruel because it makes them feel good. . Toni has one of the most magnificent voices, her sisters are lovely people & the whole sound is just beautiful, and this is comng from an old rock n' roller. But all some people see are the teeth, which I happen to find attractive, not that it means anything, So Kevin, are you genetically blessed or do you have a beer gut & bad breath & feel the need to put someone else down? You may be genetically blessed in the looks department but if that's the case I'm afraid there was nothing left for brain development.

Forgot "Pussycat" singing Mississsippi. I forgot Laura, my first girlfriend. Our relationship lasted only school holidays and now I hear the song and remembered it.
