Mississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everythingWay down around Vicksburg, around Louisiana way
Where lived the Cajun lady, aboard the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wineWhile the rest of them dudes were gettin' their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mineMississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everythingThis lady she asked me, if I would be her man
You know what I told her, I'd do what I can
To keep her lookin' pretty, buy her dresses that shineWhile the rest of them dudes were makin' their friends
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was losin' mine
I was losin' my mind, on the Mississippi QueenMississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everythingWay down around Vicksburg, around Louisiana way
Where lived the Cajun lady, aboard the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wineWhile the rest of them dudes were gettin' their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was gettin' mineI was gettin' mine, I was gettin' mine
No, you can't have mine, no no, you can't have mine
No no, you can't have mine, come see my Mississippi Queen
