Mississippi Queen, you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everything
Way down around Vicksburg, around Louisiana way
Lived a Cajun lady, they call the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes was a gettin' their kicks
Brother beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine
Mississippi Queen, 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'ma do what I can
To keep her lookin' pretty, I buy her things that shine
While the rest of them dudes was a gettin' their bread
Brother beg your pardon, I was losin' mine
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes was a gettin' their kicks
Brother beg your pardon, I was gettin' mine
Yeah, Mississippi Queen
