Mississippi River Queen Lyrics

Mississippi River Queen lyrics

Written By David Allan Coe







HEY, CALIFORNIA YOU DON'T KNOW ME



NEW YORK CITY YOU CAN'T SHOW ME



ANYTHING I HAVEN'T SEEN AT LEAST A HUNDRED TIMES BEFORE



I STILL LOVE YOU, NEW ORLEANS, MISSISSIPPI RIVER QUEEN



'CAUSE WHEN IT COMES TO LOVING' YOU BEAT ALL I'VE EVER SEEN!







AND I'VE SEEN A LOT OF LADIES IN MY TIME



I'VE HAD ME A FEW WOMEN THAT WERE FINE



AH, BUT I DON'T NEED NO CITY WOMAN MESSING' WITH MY MIND



SO GOODBYE SAN FRANCISCO GIRL, I'M LEAVING' YOU BEHIND.







AND I'VE HAD SOME SENORITAS DOWN IN MEXICO



I MET A FEW POTATOES UP IN IDAHO



I'VE HAD A FEW PEACHES IN GEORGIA AND THAT SAN ANTOINE ROSE



IF THE GOOD LORD MADE ANY BETTER



THAT YOU HE'S THE ONLY ONE WHO KNOWS
