[00:00.00] I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat
[00:23.97]Down to New
[00:24.90]Orleans Gotta pocket full o'money and a liquor bottle
[00:28.47]Gonna drink away my dreams
[00:30.72]Don't really wanna leave
[00:32.94]Sure I can't stay
[00:34.89]I'm gonna get on that riverboat
[00:37.74]And gamble my life away
[00:39.63]Makes me fly like an eagle
[00:42.54]Higher and higher every day
[00:49.23]Cause in my mind and in my dreams
[00:52.74]I can't get her away
[01:04.26]Gonna sit down at the poker table
[01:06.66]Five card stud's my game
[01:08.97]Gonna try and forget that crazy woman
[01:11.28]Gonna try and forget her name
[01:13.41]I don't know how
[01:14.43]I'll make it
[01:15.69]But I'll forget her some way
[01:18.15]This is the time and the only time
[01:20.46]She ain't gonna get away [Chorus ]

I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat
Down to New
Orleans Gotta pocket full o'money and a liquor bottle
Gonna drink away my dreams
Don't really wanna leave
Sure I can't stay
I'm gonna get on that riverboat
And gamble my life away
Makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher every day
Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
Gonna sit down at the poker table
Five card stud's my game
Gonna try and forget that crazy woman
Gonna try and forget her name
I don't know how
I'll make it
But I'll forget her some way
This is the time and the only time
She ain't gonna get away
