Mississippi Queen Lyrics
[Chorus]
Mississippi queen
If you know what I mean
Mississippi queen
She taught me everything
[Verse 1]
Way down around Vicksburg
Around Louisiana way
Lived a Cajun lady
They called her Mississippi Queen
[Pre-Chorus]
You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were getting their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine
[Chorus]
Mississippi queen
If you know what I mean
Mississippi queen
She taught me everything
[Verse 2]
This lady she asked me
If I would be her man
You know that I told her
I'd do what I can
[Pre-Chorus]
To keep her looking pretty
Buy her dresses that shine
While the rest of them dudes were making their bread
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was losing mine
[Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes were getting their kicks
Boy, I beg your pardon, I was getting mine
[Outro]
