lyrics

I've been down Mississippi run in worse weather
I traded all the leather put the boats back together
I've seen this done ten thousand times
But it never fails to shake the spine

Captain, won't you wake up?
Shoal's a comin' and it's mark twain seventy-two
Oh Captain, better sleep it off
Gokey's on the wheel

I slip down saddle and watch that muck run
We're runnin' and a turnin' and a burnin' coal for fun
I've seen this done ten thousand times
But they never had to shoot this old line

Captain, won't you wake up?
Shoal's a comin' and it's mark twain seventy-two
Oh Captain, better sleep it off
Gokey's on the wheel

Oh Nelly, oh Nelly, oh Nelly, oh Nelly!
The boiler's burst and the water's comin' in
I can see Ohio but there's no way we're gettin' in
I've never seen this done in all my life
Get me back to Jamestown and my poor pretty wife

Captain, won't you wake up?
Shoal's a comin' and it's mark twain seventy-two
Oh Captain, better sleep it off
Gokey's on the wheel
