Lyrics for Dixie Lilly Elton John Bernie Taupin by Elton John:
| | | Artist: | Elton John |
| | Album: | Caribou | | Track: | Dixie Lilly Elton John Bernie Taupin | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 95 | | | | Lyrics: | Showboat coming up the river
See her lanterns flicker in the gentle breeze
I can hear the
crickets singing in the evening
Old Dixie Lily moving past the cypress trees
My
little boat she rocks easy
I've been catching catfish in the creek all day
Oh and I've
never seen ladies like those on the big boats
Must be fancy breeding lets you live that
way
Dixie Lily, chugging like a grand old lady
Paddles hitting home in the noonday
sun
Ploughing through the water with your whistles blowing
Down from Louisiana on the
Vicksburg run
Papa says that I'm a dreamer
Says them skeetas bit me one too many
times
Oh but I never get lonesome living on the river
Watching old Lily leave the world
behind
