Workin for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleepin',
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,
Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans,
But I never saw the good side of the city,
Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen.

If you come down to the river,
Bet you're gonna find some people who live,
You don't have to worry, cause you have no money,
People on the river are happy to give.
