The First Showboat by Jerry Jeff Walker Guitar Chords



You know a mile around the bend on the Ohio
Coming up the river for the Sunday show
There’s a tuba and a banjo and a steam calliope
Way in the back there’s a big paddle wheel


What a thrill it musta been, playing Dixie for the folks
Up and down the river on the first showboat
What a thrill it musta been, playing Dixie for the folks
Up and down the river on the first showboat


Momma took the kids and papa took the lunch
The kids took the bells and the whiskey took the drunks
But the biggest thrill of all, you know it had to be
Was sitting up front playing steam calliope


Well there’s magic in the air, they’re fiddlin the rhymes
It’s slow and easy in the summertime
Yeah, but who’d of ever thought, the day would come to be
Where there’s oil on the waters where the rivers used to be


Yeah a mile around the bend on the Ohio
Coming up the river for the Sunday show
