Down on the muddy banks of the bayou
At Magaline's moonlit cabaret
Captain Creole's in all his glory
Sippin' whiskey and tellin' stories

Let's hear the one about the Devil's Queen

Welcome aboard the Devil's Queen
Rollin' on the river all the way to New Orleans
Mr. Johnson and Sonny Boy are playin'
on and on and on and on
Beelzebub is dealin' your cards tonight
on the Devil's Queen

The midnight crow calls us up from the ground
The waters churn and the engines howls

All aboard that goin' aboard

Welcome aboard the Devil's Queen
Rollin' on the river all the way to New Orleans
Mr. Johnson and Sonny Boy are playin'
on and on and on and on
Beelzebub is dealin' your cards tonight
on the Devil's Queen
