Mississippi Queen

Mississippi Queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi Queen

She taught me everything

Way down around Vicksburg

Round the Louisiana way

There 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 gettin' 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 what 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 friends

Boy, I beg your pardon, I was losing mine

I was losin' my mind on the Mississippi Queen

Mississippi Queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi Queen

She taught me everything

Way down around Vicksburg

Round the Louisiana way

There 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 gettin' their kicks

Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine

I was getting mine

I was getting mine

No, you can't have mine

(No, you can't have mine)

No, no, you can't have mine

(No, you can't have mine)

No, no, you can't have mine (No, no)

'Cause she's my Mississippi Queen
