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 street car thats 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
Yeah, 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 [bad word] and take me by the hand
By the hand, take me by the hand pretty [bad word] and dance with your daddy all night long
(Repeat into fade)
