Mississippi Queen
If you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen
She taught me everything

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 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 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 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 gettin' their kicks
Boy I beg your pardon
I was getting mine

Mississippi Queen
