Mississippi queen
Do 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 gettin' 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 lookin' pretty
Buy her dresses that shine
While the rest of them dudes
were makin' their bread
But I beg your pardon
I was losin' mine
You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes
were gettin' their kicks
Girl I beg your pardon
I was gettin' mine
Hey
Mississippi queen
