Red Water River Queen
By Jim Wyly

Verse 1
Went down to the river last night,
Just to have a myself good time
Thought I’d throw down a buck or two,
And let it ride
Six hours later, I looked at the clock,
it was half past three
The money came, the money went
I just couldn’t break free
Chorus
Red Water River Queen, wins the day
She gives it all up, then takes it away
Red Water River Queen, be rich or poor
She’ll take your money, then show you the door
Oooooooooooooooh Red Water River Queen
Red.........Redwater........Red Water River Queen
Bridge
She gives you money,
She gives you stars,
She gives you drinks flowing from the bar
She gives you jackpots begging you to stay
While your money slowly slips away
Verse 2
I’m sittin here on the riverbank
Watching that red water flow
My pockets empty, my paycheck gone
Got nothing left to blow
That crazy lady got a hold on me
And took me for a ride
I just went down to the river
To have myself a good time
Chorus
Roll On Roll On Red Water (twice)
I’m sittin’ here on the river bank
Watching that red water flow
Takin’ my money on down to the Gulf of Mexico
Oooooooooooooooh Red Water River Queen
Red.........Redwater........Red Water River Queen
