[Verse 1]
I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat
Down in New Orleans
Gotta pocket full o' money and a liquor bottle
Gonna drink away my dreams
Don't really want to leave
Sure I can't stay
I'm gonna get on that riverboat
And gamble my life away
[Chorus]
Makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher every day
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
[Verse 2]
Gonna sit down at that poker table
Five card stud's my game
Gonna try and forget that crazy woman
Gonna try and forget her name
I don't know how I'll make it
But I'll forget her some way
This is the time and the only time
She ain't gonna get away
[Chorus]
She makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher every day
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
[Flute and Guitar Solos]
[Chorus]
And she makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher every day
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
Can't get her away
