Mississippi Queen

(album: The Salentino Cuts - 2017)

Mississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everything
Way down around Vicksburg, around Louisiana way
Lived a Cajun lady, we called her Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine

While the rest of them dudes were getting their kicks
Buddy, beg your pardon, now I'm getting mine

Mississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everything
This lady she asked me if I would be her man
You know that I told her I'd do what I can
To keep her looking pretty
Buy her dresses that shine

While the rest of them dudes were making their bread
Buddy, beg your pardon, now we're losing mine

You know she was a dancer
She moved better on wine

While the rest of them dudes was getting their kicks
Brother, beg your pardon, now we're getting mine
Hey, Mississippi Queen
