文本歌词

Shanty boat on the Mississippi
Splashin' long to shore
Oh huh
No hair do mow
No comb to hold
I've never gonna work no more than another lady
Setting love at the bill collector
Snopin' round my door oh
Ain't scared of him
'Coz he can't swim
I'm never gonna pale bobobabebobobo
Come a day when the fish aim a bitin'
And I got some time that's free
Gonna blow for the landing
And get my gal
And bring her back with me oh huh
To my shanty boat on the Mississippi
Better times in store or
She'll sweap my robe
And that's my joll
I'm never gonna avoid no boat
