EShowboat coming up the AriverD
See her F#mlanterns flicker Ein the gentle Abreeze
EI can hear the crickets singing in the Aevening D
Old F#mDixie Lily Gmoving past the Dcypress trees
My little boat she rocks easy
I've been catching catfish in the creek all day
Oh and I've never seen ladies like those on the big boats
Must be fancy breeding lets you live that way
ADixie Lily, chugging like a Dgrand old lady
APaddles hitting home in the noondayE sun
APloughing through the A7water D/F#with your whistles Fblowing
BDown from LouisiEana on the Vicksburg ArunBm7 A/C# D D#b5
Papa says that I'm a dreamer
Says them skeetas bit me one too many times
Oh but I never get lonesome living on the river
Watching old Lily leave the world behind
