FIRST VERSE
sittin on a riverboat having a party
me and my cajun queen
she turning 21 on the missisppi river
heading out of new olean
the year is is 1894
oh come on mama and love me some more
her dark eyes flash like a gamblers rings
she shakes her pretty head and sings
CHORUS
life for me is a riverboat fantasy
watching the sun go down
a rock and roll band with a reifer in my hand
now look at that wheel go round
cocaine kisses and moon shine misses
thats the life for me
im sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy
SECOND VERSE
can't think can't drink anymore whisky
i coulda drunk the river dry
mmm this old boat shes just sitting in the moonlight
catching the gleam in her eye
showers of rain come pouring down
the sky full of stars like a french maids gown
shimmer glimmer i think im gonna fall what??
catch me mama thats all
CHORUS
life for me is a riverboat fantasy
watching the sun go down
a rock and roll band with a reifer in my hand
now look at that wheel go round
cocaine kisses and moon shine misses
thats the life for me
im sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy
THIRD VERSE
delta sun beats down like a hammer
mmm it give the low down blues
i've got a cotton gin
a wee man spin
to shake the dust from my shoes
i've made my money
i've found me a honey to tickle me under my chin
when morning comes i'll ride into town
and worry about the shape i'm in
CHORUS
life for me is a riverboat fantasy
watching the sun go down
a rock and roll band with a reifer in my hand
now look at that wheel go round
cocaine kisses and moon shine misses
thats the life for me(yes it is)
im sailing away from my heartache on a riverboat fantasy
