[ banjo ] Well they came on the boat and they took me to jail when we got to Tennessee A gamblin' man has very few friends guess nobody cared for me So I might be here for a many long years but if I ever get out I'm gonna head straight for that levee and get me S riverboat headin' south Riverboat riverboat...
