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 every thing 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 street car that's goin' up town Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky, dixieland and dance a honky tonk And I'll be buyin' everybody drinks all round I'd like to hear some funky, dixieland, pretty momma come and take me By the hand, by the hand, take me by the hand (I want to honky-tonk) (Honky-tonk) Pretty momma, come and dance with your daddy all night long I'd like to (honky-tonk) (With you all night long)
