Mississippi Queen

Around Louisiana way
You know, she was a dancer
She taught me everythin'
Mississippi Queen
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine
She taught me everythin'
Mississippi Queen
I'd do what I can
To keep her lookin' pretty

This lady she asked me
Aboard the Mississippi Queen
Lived a Cajun lady
Buy her dresses that shine

While the rest of them dudes
She moved better on wine
If you know what I mean
You know that I told her
While the rest of them dudes

You know, she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
Were'a gettin' their kicks
Were'a gettin' their kicks
Were makin' their bread

Boy I beg your pardon, I was losin' mine
While the rest of them dudes
Way down around Vicksburg
Boy I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine

Mississippi Queen
If I would be her man
