Mississippi Queen

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, we called her Mississippi Queen

You know she was a dancer

She moved better on wine

While the rest of them dudes were a-gettin' their kicks

Buddy, 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

Buddy, 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 a-gettin' their kicks

Brother, beg your pardon, now I'm getting mine!

Oh, Mississippi Queen
