Riverboat Shuffle

Riverboat Shuffle - Hoagy Carmichael

Written by：Dick Voynow/Hoagy Carmichael/Irving Mills

Good people you're invited tonight

To the riverboat shuffle

Good people we got rhythm tonight

At the riverboat shuffle

They tell me that slide pipe tooter is grand

Best in Louisiana

So bring your freighter come and alligator that band

Mister Hawkins on the tenor

Good people you'll hear Millenberg Joys

In a special orchestration

Even mama Dinah will be there to strut for the boys

In a room full of noise

She'll teach you to shuffle it right

So bring your baby

I'll be seeing you at the riverboat shuffle tonight

Good people you're invited tonight

To the riverboat shuffle

Good people we got rhythm tonight

At the riverboat shuffle

They tell me that slide pipe tooter is grand

Best in Louisiana

Bring your freighter come and alligator that band

Mister Jordan on the alto

Good people we got Millenberg Joys

In a special orchestration

Even mama Dinah will be there to strut for the boys

In a room full of noise

She'll teach you to shuffle it right

So bring your baby

I'll be seeing you at the riverboat shuffle the riverboat shuffle tonight
