Well the day I met you
The Mississippi turned blue
No I never did knew
Things could be so true
Well I know it’s been said
This ole mining town been bled
But I swear it turned red
When I kissed your sweet head
Where did you come from, what’d you do?
Kicked the black dust off my shoes and made them new
Six days a week was all I knew
Til you showed me the seventh when I fell for a girl named you
Six days in the hole
Make a young man old
These walls of black coal
You’ve gone and turned it all to gold
On the Riverboat Queen
It all looks so green
As the winter turn to Spring
You’re the reason I sing
