(Robbie Robertson)
2
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
3
Alone in the pale moonlight
4
Waitin' for a man, a riverboat gambler
5
Said that he'd return tonight
6
They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
7
Lovin' the whole night through
8
He was a riverboat gambler off to make a killin'
9
And bring it on back to you
10
Evangeline Evangeline
11
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
12
That pulled her man away
13
Bayou Sam from South Louisian'
14
Had gamblin' in his veins
15
Evangeline from the maritime
16
Was slowly goin' insane
17
High on the top of a Hickory Hill
18
She stands in the lightning and thunder
19
Down on the river the boat was a sinkin'
20
She watched that Queen go under
21

That pulled her man away

Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
