Oh minneapolis,
I saw you and saint paul kiss
Neath the moonlight in a mississippi mist
Never saw a thing as beautiful as this
Oh minneapolis

Oh minneapolis,
City on the water where the angels walk
O saint paul, city of peace and righteousness
City where the lord and the angels talk

Oh minneapolis,
I saw you and saint paul kiss
Neath the moonlight in a mississippi mist
Never saw a thing as beautiful as this
Oh minneapolis

Rain down, purple rain (i wanna hear the sound)
I wanna feel the royal rain on me
I wanna feel the holy water running like a holy stream
I wanna be baptized in the city in the mississippi
I wanna be baptized in the city in the mississippi

O minneapolis,
I saw you and saint paul kiss
Neath the moonlight in a mississippi mist
Never saw a thing as beautiful as this
Oh minneapolis
