Is this not one of the sweetest songs ever...forever in my heart...love that fiddle...and, what a perfect time show my love for it and thank The Doobie Brothers for all the great years of their dirt floor down home awesome music. I am living on the Blackwater Bay, and, I am on a mission to share these amazing sunsets and sounds on the bay...They are everywhere I look....Pelicans, egrets, blue heron, an occasional dolphin...mullet jumping, God has given lots of props to produce with...so, bear with my madness!! LOL It is an honour to have this space to play and enjoy the wonderful folks I have met here/hear on Planet YT.. The ole Blackwater is close to my heart....my way of sharing it with you....check out the wonderful water colours at twilight etc.. I dedicate this particular video to my dear sister and friend, Lisa...She was raised on this very bay...Her family, as we all have, has been through a difficult journey this past couple of years...and, it is my prayer that when she sees this that she know she is loved and in my heart and prayers always..Love you, girl..;-) Thank you for being the real friend I remembered..♥ LYRICS: Well, I built me a raft and she's ready for floatin' Ol' Mississippi, she's callin' my name Catfish are jumpin' That paddle wheel thumpin' Black water keeps rollin' on past just the same Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Yeah, keep on shinin' your light Gonna make everything, pretty mama Gonna make everything all right And I ain't got no worries 'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all Well, if it rains, I don't care Don't make no difference to me Just take that street car thats goin' up town Yeah, I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland (From: www.elyrics.net/read/d/doobie-brothers-lyrics/black-water-lyrics.html) And dance a honky tonk And I'll be buyin' ev'rybody drinks all 'roun' Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Old black water, keep on rollin' Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shinin' on me Yeah, keep on shinin' your light Gonna make everything, pretty mama Gonna make everything all right And I ain't got no worries 'Cause I ain't in no hurry at all I'd like to hear some funky Dixieland Pretty mama come and take me by the hand By the hand, take me by the hand pretty mama Come and dance with your daddy all night long I want to honky tonk, honky tonk, honky tonk With you all night long
