David Wilcox Lyrics
"Riverboat Fantasy"

Sittin' on a Riverboat havin' a party
Me and my Cajun queen
She's turnin' 21 on the Mississippi river
Headin' out of New Orlean

The Year is 1894
Oh, Come on mama and love me some more
Her dark eyes flashed like a Gambler's rings
She shakes her pretty head and sings

CHOURS:
Life for me is a Riverboat Fantasy
Watchin' the sun go down
A rock & roll band, with a reefer in my hand
Now look at that wheel go round
Cocaine kisses and moonshine misses
That's the life for me
I'm sailing away from my heartache
On a Riverboat fantasy

Can't think, Can't drink anymore whisky
I coulda drunk a river dry
Mmm, this old boat she's just sittin' in the moon light
Catchin' the gleam in her eye
Showers of rain come pourin' down
The sky full of stars like a French Lace gown
Shimmer, glimmer I think I'm gonna fall
WHAT?? Catch me mama that's all

CHOURS
Life for me is a Riverboat Fantasy
Watchin' the sun go down
A rock & roll band, with a reefer in my hand
Now look at that wheel go round
Cocaine kisses and moonshine misses
That's the life for me
I'm sailing away from my heartache
On a Riverboat fantasy

Delta sun, beats down like a hammer
Mmm, it give the low down blues
I've got a Cotton gin
A weave and spin
To shake the dust from my shoes
I made my money I found me a honey
To tickle me under my chin
When mornin' comes I'll ride into town
And worry 'bout the shape I'm in

CHOURS
Life for me is a Riverboat Fantasy
Watchin' the sun go down
A rock & roll band, with a reefer in my hand
Now look at that wheel go round
Cocaine kisses and moonshine misses
That's the life for me (Yes it is)
I'm sailing away from my heartache
On a Riverboat fantasy
