Letra de Delta Queen

[Verse 1]
Your paddles wheels are turning muddy water churning
Her stacks blowing smokes black as coal her whistle
High on thrill folks dressed fit to kill down the mighty Mississippi
Watch her grow Dexy bangs are swinging open her Banjews
Ringing so I am going to have to ban Jubilee that’s our
Game of chance including sweet romance it’s traveling
At the height of luxury

[Chorus]
She leaves the dock on St. Loui making her way south to South Orleans
The captain’s in the wheelhouse
He is calling for the mighty hills steam
Delta queen

[Verse 2]
There’s a river boat gambler lowdown wrecking wrangler
Sporting any luck by his side where deck 52 with a pistol
In his boothe you bet she is going to smile on him tonight
She leaves the dock on St. Loui making her way south to
South Orleans the captain’s in the wheelhouse he is calling
For the mighty hills steam Delta queen

[Chorus]
She leaves the dock on St. Loui making her way south to
South Orleans
The captain’s in the wheelhouse
He is calling
For the mighty hills steam
Delta queen
Delta queen
Delta queen
