The First Showboat - Jerry Jeff Walker

Yeah a mile around the bend down the Ohio

 

Comin' up the river for the Sunday show

There's a tuba and a banjo and a steam calliope

Sittin on the deck of the big paddlewheel

Oh yeah

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river

On the first showboat

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

 

Poppa took the kids momma took the lunch

The gents took the belles

And the whiskey took the drunks

But the biggest thrill of

Know it had to be

We sit up front playin steam calliope

Oh yeah

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

What a thrill

It must have been playin Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

 

Yeah there's magic in the air riddle in the rhymes

Slow and easy in the summertime

 

Yeah an who'd a ever thought it could come to be

Way this away on the ward is

Where for realy just me

Oh no

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river

On the first showboat

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

 

Yeah a mile around the bend down the Ohio

Comin' up the river for the Sunday show

Oh yeah

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

What a thrill

It must have been playin Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

What a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

Yeah what a thrill

It must have been playin Dixie for the folks

 

Up and down the river on the first showboat

Yeah what a thrill

It must have been play in Dixie for the folks

Up and down the river on the first showboat

Yeah what a thrill

It must have been playin Dixie for the folks

 

Up and down the river on the first showboat
