Mississippi Queen

Mississippi queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi queen

She taught me everything

Way down around Vicksburg

Around Louisiana way

There lived the Cajun lady

Aboard the Mississippi Queen

You know she was a dancer

She moved better on wine

While the rest of them dudes were a-getting their kicks

Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine

Mississippi queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi queen

She taught me everything

This lady, she asked me

If I would be her man

You know that I told her

I'd do what I can

To keep her looking pretty

Buy her dresses that shine

While the rest of them dudes were making their friends

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 was getting their kicks

Brother, beg your pardon, I was getting mine

Oh, Mississippi queen
