Lyric Black Water

Patrick Simmons

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, pretty mama
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 want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk
With you all night long
