Lyrics:
Well, I built me a raft
And she's ready for floatin'
Old Mississippi, she's calling my name
Catfish are jumpin'
That paddle wheel pumpin'
Black water keep rollon' on past just the same
{Refrain}
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me
Oh black water, keep on rolling
Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me
Yeah, keep on shining your light
Gonna make everything, pretty mama
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
Well if it rains I don't care
Don't make no difference to me
Just take that streetcar that's goin' uptown
Yeah, I like to hear some funky Dixieland
And dance some Honky Tonk
And I be buyin' everybody drinks all 'round
{Refrain}
Keep on shining your light
Gonna make everything, everything
Gonna make everything all right
And I ain't got no worries
'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all
I like to hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama come and take me by the hand
By the hand, hand
Take me by the hand, pretty mama
Come and dance with your daddy all night long
I like to hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama come and take me by the hand
By the hand, hand
(I want to honky tonk)
Take me by the hand, pretty mama
 (Honky tonk,  honky tonk)
Come on and dance with your daddy all night long
 (With you all night long)
{Repeat to fade}
