《Riverboat》歌词

[00:00:00] Riverboat - Faron Young

[00:00:05] Well I spent the better part of

[00:00:07] My life on a Mississippi riverboat

[00:00:10] I used to be known from coast to coast

[00:00:13] As the slickest gambler afloat

[00:00:16] I've dealt the cards from Minnesota to

[00:00:19] The harbor in New Orleans

[00:00:21] I made a lotta big money on the riverboat

[00:00:24] I loved a lotta pretty riverboat queens

[00:00:31] Riverboat riverboat I love your whistle's wail

[00:00:36] I wish I was back on the riverboart

[00:00:39] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:00:41] Yeah yeah

[00:00:48] Oh a big man got on the riverboat

[00:00:50] Our last time in St Paul

[00:00:53] He had a lotta money but his luck went

[00:00:55] Bad and the riverboat won it all

[00:00:58] He said I dealt from the bottom of

[00:01:00] The deck and he pulled a shiny knife

[00:01:04] But before that gambler lunged

[00:01:06] At me my 44 took his life

[00:01:13] Riverboat riverboat

[00:01:16] I love your whistle's wail

[00:01:19] I wish I was back on the riverboart

[00:01:21] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:01:30] Well they came on the boat and

[00:01:32] They took me to jail when we got to Tennessee

[00:01:36] A gamblin' man has very few friends

[00:01:38] Guess nobody cared for me

[00:01:40] So I might be here for a many long years

[00:01:44] But if I ever get out

[00:01:46] I'm gonna head straight for

[00:01:47] That levee and get me

[00:01:49] A riverboat headin' south

[00:01:56] Riverboat riverboat

[00:01:58] I love your whistle's wail

[00:02:01] I wish I was back on the riverboat

[00:02:04] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:02:08] Stead of in the Memphis jail
