Mississippi Queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi Queen

She taught me everythin'

Way down around Vicksburg

Around 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'a gettin' their kicks

Boy I beg your pardon I was gettin' mine

Mississippi Queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi Queen

She taught me everythin'

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 lookin' pretty

Buy her dresses that shine

While the rest of them dudes

Were makin' their bread

Boy I beg your pardon I was losin' mine

I was losin' mine

On the Mississippi Queen

Mississippi queen

If you know what I mean

Mississippi queen

She taught me everything

Way down around Vicksburg

Around Louisiana way

Where 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 gettin' their kicks

Boy I beg your pardon

I was gettin' mine

I was gettin' mine

I was gettin' mine

No you can't have mine

No no you can't have mine

No no you can't have mine

To keep a mississippi queen
