Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'
Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name
Catfish are jumpin', that paddle wheel thumpin'
Black water keep rollin' on past just the same
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
Well, if it rains, I don't care
Don't make no difference to me
Just take that street car that's goin' up town
Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
And dance a honky tonk
And I'll be buyin' everybody drinks all around
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Old black water, keep on rollin'
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light
Gonna make everything, everything
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
I'd like to hear
Some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(I want to honky tonk, honky tonk)
By the hand (hand) take me
By the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
(with you all night long)
I'd like to hear
Some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(I want to honky tonk, honky tonk)
By the hand (hand) take me
By the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
(with you all night long)
I'd like to hear
Some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(I want to honky tonk, honky tonk)
By the hand (hand) take me
By the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
(with you all night long)
I'd like to hear
Some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(I want to honky tonk, honky tonk)
By the hand (hand) take me
By the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
(with you all night long)
