INTRO: E
E B7
Have you ever took a boat ride down the Mississippi
E
Honey if you ever do you oughta take it on the Ella B
B7
Cause it starts off in St. Louis Missouri
E
And she take you down to Orleans and out to the sea
A E
Well you heard about the ship called Queen Mary
A E
That sailed on the northern sea
A E B7 *(G#, G, F#) E
Ain't never took no boat ride till' you been riding on the Ella B
E B7
Her accomodations are among the best
E
Give you three square meals a day and a place to rest
B7
Smell them big old plates of hot biscuits and the country ham
E
Get your fresh fried chickens, mashed potatoes and candied yams
A E A E
Heard about that ship called the Constitution fighting that Revolutionary War
A E B7 *(G#, G, F#) E
And our inland Navy she's the finest from shore to shore
BRIDGE: E, B7, E, B7, E
E B7
Well it takes about a week to get back down that old Mississippi river
E
When you get on board you wish it would last forever
B7
Sit on the deck fish off the side all day
E
Watch the sunny southland roll by and dream your blues away
A E
Heard about the ship Titanic
A E
Sank it on the northern sea
A E B7 *(G#, G, F#) E
Ain't never took no boat ride 'till you been riding on the Mississippi
(Full House Aces High Live version ending)
E
Well there ain't no tourist class and it ain't too fast
Just one for all and we're having a ball
