A house boat by it called the Gin Palace Docked in White Trash Bay We serve homemade tequila 23 hours a day We got hand rolled cigars and a 3 foot driftwood bar With Cap’n Earl’s Sarah Mae is the workin girl Now you can have warm flat beer or a jar of cherry moonshine And you can have a shot of Copperhead Whiskey You can have a pull of Thunderbird Wine It’s always cash in hand, and you can still drink if you can still stand Floatin on a bayou barstool prayin to God we don’t sink On this boat I’m the king of the sea There ain’t nobody that don’t know me Now I’m a riverboat bandit mean as hell known near and far And If you hear a rumor I’m dead and gone Know this legend will still live on Throw me in the river with concrete boots like a bottle of whiskey I was bound to drown We got a dirty blonde waitress her name’s Scarlett Her red lipstick she’s a sailors harlot She can drop it down low and make ya head spin if the money gets right She’s got a snake skin wallet on a wallet chain Her faded tramp stamp says “Bring the Pain” And she’ll be gone without warnin in the mornin don’t fall in love On this boat I’m the king of the sea SongtexteThere ain’t nobody that don’t know me Now I’m a riverboat bandit mean as hell known near and far And If you hear the rumor I’m dead and gone Know this legend will still live on Throw me in the river with concrete boots Like a bottle of whiskey I was bound to drown We play hundred dollar games of single rack 9 ball And you can throw bones if you like to watch dice fall You can cut cards with Tennessee Slim we’ll play 7 card stud You better have a knife or a .44 Cause every night there’s blood on this floor And there ain’t no law to get all the way to White Trash Bay On this boat I’m the king of the sea There ain’t nobody that don’t know me Now I’m a riverboat bandit mean as hell known near and far And If you hear the rumor I’m dead and gone You Know this legend will still live on Throw me in the river with concrete boots Like a bottle of whiskey I was bound to drown I hope they find me in the river with concrete boots Cause like a bottle of whiskey I was bound to drown Aus Songtexte Mania
