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'a 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 making their bread
Boy I beg your pardon, I was losing mine !

Ohhhhhhh mississippi queen
