|
I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat |
|
Down to New |
|
Orleans Gotta pocket full o'money and a liquor bottle |
|
Gonna drink away my dreams |
|
Don't really wanna leave |
|
Sure I can't stay |
|
I'm gonna get on that riverboat |
|
And gamble my life away |
|
Makes me fly like an eagle |
|
Higher and higher every day |
|
Cause in my mind and in my dreams |
|
I can't get her away |
|
Gonna sit down at the poker table |
|
Five card stud's my game |
|
Gonna try and forget that crazy woman |
|
Gonna try and forget her name |
|
I don't know how |
|
I'll make it |
|
But I'll forget her some way |
|
This is the time and the only time |
|
She ain't gonna get away [Chorus] |
