In the summertime in 1861 | |
And I was livin' near to Cairo town | |
Only 20 years old when I stepped aboard the River Queen | |
Well a man walked up in a shiny blue suit | |
He said “Son you wanna play some cards?” | |
It was the three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans | |
Well we sat down to play a little game of Black Jack | |
And the folks how they gathered round | |
And then he started to deal so fast my head commenced to spin | |
In one hand he had a drink | |
In one hand he had a smoke | |
In one hand he had a royal flush | |
Dirty three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans | |
La la la, La la la na | |
La la la, La la la na | |
You know I played ‘til I was broke | |
Then I upped and walked away | |
To have a talk with a gal I'd found | |
For to get some sympathy for way the stranger treated me | |
Well he walked up as bold as brass | |
Put two arms around her waist | |
And with the other hand he knocked me down | |
I hate the three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans | |
La la la, La la la na | |
And now morning has come to rolling River Queen | |
Where the gamblin' man slept last night | |
Folks say he fell overboard, and was washed out to sea | |
And here I'm sitting here in a shiny blue suit | |
Just a-grinnin' like a crazy fool | |
Kinda wonderin' what to do with the other sleeve | |
I hate that three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans |
In the summertime in 1861 | |
