Black Water 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
(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Yeah, keep on shinin' your light,
gonna make everythin'
Pretty mama,
gonna make everythin' 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'

(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
(Ol' black water, keep on rollin')
Mississippi moon,
won't you keep on shinin' on me?
Keep on shinin' your light,
gonna make everythin'
Everythin'-, gonna make everythin' 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
