Yeah take you back in time a bit
You know a mile around the bend on the
Ohio Comin up the river for the
Sunday show
There's a tuba and a banjo and a steam calliope
Way in the back there's a big paddlewheel
Oh yeah! 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 playin'
Dixie for the folks
Up and down the river on the first showboat
Yeah well
Momma took the kids,
Pomma took the lunch
The gents took the belles and the whiskey took the drunks
But the biggest thrill of all, you know it had to be
Was sittin' up front playin steam calliope
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 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
It's slow and easy in the summertime
Yeah but who'd a ever thought the day would come to be
When there's oil on the water where clear rivers used to be
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 playin'
Dixie for the folks
Up and down the river on the first showboat
Yeah a mile around the bend on the
Ohio Comin up the river for the
Sunday show
What a thrill it must have been playin'
Dixie for the folks
Up and down the river on the first showboat ....
