Il testo della River boat song

I hear a whistle, i hear a moan
Must be my baby coming home
She's been down in tupelo
Singing that river boat song

She is a dancer, a river queen
She'll teach them gamblers most anything
She's been down in tupelo
Singing that river boat song

Many nights i spend alone
Many days there ain't nobody home
Many times i wish she was here
Yeah, that river boat whistle blow
I know she's getting near

River captain, bring my baby home
I get so lonesome since she's been gone
She's been down in tupelo
Singing that river boat song

Many nights i spend alone
Many days there ain't nobody home
Many times i wish she was here
Yeah, that river boat whistle blow
I know she's getting near

River captain, bring my baby home
I get so lonesome since she's been gone
She's been down in tupelo
Singing that river boat song
