| Now I had a teacher when I went to school | |
| She loved the river, and she taught about it too | |
| I'se a pretty bad boy, but she called my bluff | |
| With her great big collection of steamboat stuff | |
| Oh, yeah | |
| She had log-books and bells and the things like that | |
| And she knew the old captains and where they were at | |
| She rode the Alabama and the Gordon C. Green | |
| As the Cape Giraudoux, she was later renamed | |
| Uh-huh | |
| But her very favoritе, as you all know | |
| Was the Golden Eagle, Captain Buck's old boat | |
| This old stеrn wheeler sank and went to heaven | |
| When I was in the fourth grade, in nineteen forty-seven | |
| Uh-huh | |
| Well, now, fast people in St. Louis society | |
| A-takin' a trip on the Mississippi | |
| Sleepin' in their bunks after an after-dinner drink | |
| They didn't think the boat would sink | |
| Oh, no | |
| Well, I know Captain Buck was a very sad man | |
| When that old wooden hull went into the sand | |
| And Miss Ferris was sad for sure | |
| But immediately, her mind went to work | |
| Oh, yeah | |
| Well, she did some politicking that was tricky and hard | |
| And she got the pilot house for the schoolhouse yard | |
| And so, instead of studying, I became a dreamer | |
| Dreaming 'bout boats and the Mississippi River | |
| Uh-huh | |
| I had to work real hard to get my school work done | |
| 'Cause you could not fool Mis Ferris none | |
| And, if I went to sleep or I were not supposed to talk | |
| Oh, she was a dead shot with a little piece of chalk. Uh-huh | |
| Oh me, oh my, how the time does fly | |
| Time and the river keep a-rollin' on by | |
| Now, I am not a student and she is not a teacher | |
| But, we both still love the Mississippi River | |
| Uh, huh | |
| Well, I went to see her this Christmas last | |
| We took a little trip back through the past | |
| On the easy rocker we looked at pictures | |
| And we dreamed our dreams of the Mississippi River | |
| Uh-huh | |
| Oh me, oh my, how the time does fly | |
| Time and the river keep a-rollin' on by | |
| Now, I am not a student and she is not a teacher | |
| But, we both still love the Mississippi River | |
| Uh, huh |
