arthur collins - steamboat bill lyrics
[verse 1]
down the mississippi came the whippoorwill
commanded by that pilot, mr. steamboat bill
the owners gave him orders on the strict qt
to try and beat the record of the robert e. lee
“just heat up the fire, let the old smoke roll
burn up all your cargo, if you run out of coal
if we don’t beat that record,” billy told the mate
“send the mail and care to peter at the golden gate.”
[chorus]
oh, steamboat bill, steaming down the mississippi
steamboat bill, a mighty man was he
oh, steamboat bill, steaming down the mississippi
gonna beat the record of the robert e. lee!
[verse 2]
up, then, stepped the gambling man from louisville
who tried to give a bet against the whippoorwill
billy flashed a roll that surely was a bear
the boiler, it exploded, blew them up in the air
the gambler said to billy as they left the wreck
“i don’t know where we’re going, but we’re neck_and_neck!”
says bill to the gambler, “tell you what i’ll do:
i’ll bet another thousand, i’ll go higher than you!”
[chorus]
oh, steamboat bill, he tore up the mississippi
steamboat bill, the tyrants made him square
oh, steamboat bill, he tore up the mississippi
the explosion of the boiler got him up in the air
[verse 3]
the river’s all in mourning, now for steamboat bill
no more you’ll hear the pumping of the whippoorwill
this crane on every steamboat the blows those streams
from memphis right to [?] down to new orleans
the wife of mr. william was at home in bed
when she got the telegram that steamboat’s dead
said she to the children, “blessed honey lambs
the next papa that you have will be a railroad man!”
[chorus]
oh, steamboat bill misses long the mississippi
steamboat bill, he’s with an angel band
oh, steamboat bill misses long the mississippi
he’s a pilot on a ferry in that promised land!
oh, steamboat bill misses long the mississippi
steamboat bill is with an angel band
oh, steamboat bill misses long the mississippi
he’s a pilot on a ferry in that promised land!
