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 alright

And I ain't got no worries 'cause I ain't in no hurry at all

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 around Repeat Chorus

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, 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, 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, by the hand Take me by the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long

Come on, baby (4x)
