[Verse 1]
F                                              C
Well he likes black coffee, fried eggs and a well done T-bone steak
C                                                        A#                       F
He likes a red dress and pearly white teeth and the flash of her pretty brown legs
          A#                              F
He said back in the '30s, you know you never had it made
    G7                                         C
He worked as an engineer on the Ohio river, working for the Pittsburgh trade
 
 
[Verse 2]
F                                               C
At the inspection office in Louisville he had a desk for a very short time
C                                                 A#                        F
And he played in a band on two different boats working for the Strackfus line
     A#                                 F
And long ago he smoked reefer and he even made home brew
        G7                                   C
And the reefer come in through New Orleans back before World War II
 
 
[Chorus]
 F                                          C
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
C                                      A#               F
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal
     A#                                   F
Well it's too thick to navigate, And it's too thin to plow
    F              C                  F         C            F
So let him go on mama and don't put him down for it now

[Verse 3]
 F                                             C
Well he smokes an old I-bolt cigar, Says he doesn't miss it at all
C                                                       A#                     F
But he still goes out and he makes a few trips in the summer and in the fall
        A#                                          F
Oh, the railroad trains, the bus and planes are picking up the slack
     G7                                C
He's watching all those river towns slowly turn their backs
 
 
[Chorus]
 F                                          C
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel

You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal

Well it's too thick to navigate, And it's too thin to plow
    F              C                  F         C            F
So let him go on mama and don't put him down for it now

[Verse 4]
F                                                           C
Well he comes from a real old-time way of life, He had to fight to just learn how
C                                                    A#                    F
And he might even have voted for Nixon once but I'm sure he sees that now
      A#                                      F
Well Friday night he makes the best damn Gumbo you'd ever want to eat
      G7                                         C
And Saturday morning 'fore everyone's up, he's gone off down to the fleet
 
 
[Chorus]
 F                                          C
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel

You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal

Well it's too thick to navigate, And it's too thin to plow

[Verse 5]
F                                             C
You're as pretty as he is ugly and he's the happiest man alive
C                                       A#                   F
Somehow you got him thinking that old men are back in style
      A#                                          F
Now you see these Oysters Bienville and this baked potato skin
     G7                                 C
I eat 'em so I can grow up an' be, an old man just like him
 
 
[Chorus]
 F                                          C
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
C                                      A#               F
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal
