Lyrics:

Bare-footed, got a fishin' pole
Goin' down where the big water flows
Ain't nothin like it on a hot summer day
Gonna build a boat and sail away

Chorus:
Pirates of the Mississippi
From St. Paul to New Orleans
Pirates of the Mississippi
Stealin' time and fishin' for free

C'mon baby, take a trip with me
Climb on board and we'll chase your dreams
Gonna find us a new latitude
Let the magic river work for you

Chorus
