Mississippi Queen

Mississippi queen
You know what I mean, yeah
Mississippi queen
She taught me everything

Way down around Vicksburg
'Round Louisiana way
Lived a Cajun lady
Aboard the Mississippi queen

You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were getting their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine

Mississippi queen
You know what I mean, yeah
Mississippi queen
She taught me everything

This lady, she asked me
If I would be her man
You know that I told her
I would do what I can
To keep her looking pretty
Buy her dresses that shine
While the rest of them dudes were making their bread
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was losing mine

You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were getting their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine

Yeah
Mississippi queen, ah
Mississippi queen
