Karaoké Riverboat Fantasy David Wilcox

Sittin' on a riverboat havin' a party me and my Cajun Queen

She's turnin' twenty-one on the Mississippi river headin' down to New Orleans

The year is eighteen ninety-four

Oh come on mama and love me some more

Her dark eyes flash like a gambler's rings

She shakes her pretty head and sings

Life for me is a riverboat fantasy watchin' the sun go down

A rock and roll band with a reefer in my hand

Now look at that wheel go around

Cocaine kisses and moonshine Misses that's the life for me

I'm sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy

Can't think can't drink anymore whisky

I coulda drunk a river dry

Mmm this old boat she's just sittin' in the moonlight catchin' the gleam in her eye

Showers of rain come pourin' down

The sky full of stars like a french lace gown

Shimmer glimmer

I think I'm gonna fall

Whoops catch me mama that's all

Life for me is a riverboat fantasy watchin' the sun go down

A rock and roll band with a reefer in my hand

Now look at that wheel go around

Cocaine kisses and moonshine Misses that's the life for me

I'm sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy

Delta sun beats down like a hammer

Mmm it gives the low down blues

I've got a cotton gin

I'll weave and spin

And shake the dust from my shoes

I made my money

I found me a honey to tickle me under my chin

When mornin' comes

I'll ride into town

And worry 'bout the shape I'm in

Life for me is a riverboat fantasy watchin' the sun go down

A rock and roll band with a reefer in my hand

Now look at that wheel go around

Cocaine kisses and moonshine Misses

That's the life for me yes it is

I'm sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy
