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 keep 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 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' 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?
 Keep on shinin' your light
 Gonna make everything, everything
 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, take me by the hand pretty Mama
 Come and dance with your daddy all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 I want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk
 With you all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 By the hand, take me by the hand pretty Mama
 Come and dance with your daddy all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 I want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk
 With you all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 By the hand, take me by the hand pretty Mama
 Come and dance with your daddy all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 I want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk
 With you all night long
 I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland
 Pretty Mama come and take me by the hand
 By the hand, take me by the hand pretty Mama
