Black Water Lyrics
Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin'Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name
Catfish are jumpin', that paddle wheel thumpin'
Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light - Gonna make everything
Pretty mama, gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries - 'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
Well, if it rains, I don't care - Don't make no difference to me
Just take that streetcar that's goin' uptown
Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland and dance a honky-tonk
And I'll be buyin' ev'rybody drinks all 'roun'
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Old black water, keep on rollin' - Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light - Gonna make everything
Pretty mama, gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries - 'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland - Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(By the hand) hand (take me by the hand) pretty mama
Gonna dance with your daddy all night long
I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland - Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(By the hand) hand (take me by the hand) pretty mama
Gonna dance with your daddy all night long
I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland - Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(By the hand) hand (take me by the hand) pretty mama
Gonna dance with your daddy all night long
I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland - Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
(By the hand) hand (take me by the hand) pretty mama
Gonna dance with your daddy all night long
