Lyrics

[Verse 1: Miranda Lambert] She was the Belle of Biloxi back in her day Shreveport sailing all the way to the bank She was fish net fancy for a buffet line Had the same red carpet since '79 And she was, ha, ha, staying alive [Chorus: Miranda Lambert] Rolling down the river on the Music City Queen Cumberland water, yeah, life is but a dream Show boat, baby, gonna make a little green Rolling down the river on a Music City Queen [Refrain: The B-52's] Rolling down the river Yeah, we're rolling down the river [Verse 2: Miranda Lambert & Fred Schneider] Terry kinda thinks he's Jerry Lee Lewis Plays "Great Balls of Fire" like there ain't nothing to it Tina never quite had a Hollywood body But she makes a damn good look-alike Dolly (Whoo, Dolly!) Working 9 to 5 [Pre-Chorus: Miranda Lambert & Fred Schneider] 'Round about 10:30 (10:30!) All the jokes, they get dirty (That's dirty!) And the waitress, she gets flirty (You're flirty!) In the right light, she kinda purty [Chorus: Miranda Lambert & Fred Schneider] Everybody just rolling down the river on the Music City Queen Cumberland water, yeah life is but a dream Show boat baby, gonna make a little green Rolling down the river on a Music City Queen (Music City Queen!) [Bridge: Miranda Lambert & Fred Schneider] If your heyday is faded, you can still be a star Get to boozin' and cruisin', maritime is a charm Didn't make it in Vegas, if the magic is gone If you're flashy and trashy, come on and get on, get on! [Chorus 2: Miranda Lambert & Fred Schneider] And we're rolling down the river on the Music City Queen Cumberland water, yeah, life is but a dream (We're rollin' on!) She's a show boat baby, no, it ain't high seas Rolling down the river on a Music City Queen (Get on!) [Outro: Miranda Lambert & The B-52's] She's a show boat baby And we're rolling down the river A rockin' river lady Yeah, we're rolling down the river It's a dream Yeah, we're rolling down the river Come on, get on
