[00:00:00] Riverboat - Faron Young

[00:00:01] Written by:Allen Toussaint

[00:00:06] Well I spent the better part of my life

[00:00:09] On a Mississippi riverboat

[00:00:11] I used to be known from coast to coast

[00:00:14] As the slickest gambler afloat

[00:00:17] I've dealt the cards from Minnesota

[00:00:20] To the harbor in New Orleans

[00:00:22] I made a lotta big money on the riverboat

[00:00:25] I loved a lotta pretty riverboat queens

[00:00:32] Riverboat riverboat I love your whistle's wail

[00:00:37] I wish I was back on the riverboart

[00:00:40] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:00:49] Oh a big man got on the riverboat

[00:00:51] Our last time in St. Paul

[00:00:54] He had a lotta money but his luck went bad

[00:00:57] And the riverboat won it all

[00:00:59] He said I dealt from the bottom of the deck

[00:01:02] He pulled a shiny knife

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

[00:01:07] My 44 took his life

[00:01:14] Riverboat riverboat I love your whistle's wail

[00:01:20] I wish I was back on the riverboart

[00:01:22] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:01:31] Well they came on the boat and they took me

[00:01:33] To jail when we got to Tennessee

[00:01:37] A gamblin' man has very few friends

[00:01:39] Guess nobody cared for me

[00:01:42] So I might be here for a many long years

[00:01:45] But if I ever get out

[00:01:47] I'm gonna head straight for that levee and get me

[00:01:50] A riverboat headin' south

[00:01:57] Riverboat riverboat I love your whistle's wail

[00:02:02] I wish I was back on the riverboart

[00:02:05] Stead of in the Memphis jail

[00:02:09] Stead of in the Memphis jail
