[Verse 1]
D                                              A
Well he likes black coffee, fried eggs and a well done T-bone steak
A                                                        G                       D
He likes a red dress and pearly white teeth and the flash of her pretty brown legs
          G                              D
He said back in the '30s, you know you never had it made
    E7                                         A
He worked as an engineer on the Ohio river, working for the Pittsburgh trade
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                               A
At the inspection office in Louisville he had a desk for a very short time
A                                                 G                        D
And he played in a band on two different boats working for the Strackfus line
     G                                 D
And long ago he smoked reefer and he even made home brew
        E7                                   A
And the reefer come in through New Orleans back before World War II
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                                          A
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
A                                      G               D
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal
     G                                   D
Well it's too thick to navigate, And it's too thin to plow
    D              A                  D         A            D
So let him go on mama and don't put him down for it now

[Verse 3]
 D                                             A
Well he smokes an old I-bolt cigar, Says he doesn't miss it at all
A                                                       G                     D
But he still goes out and he makes a few trips in the summer and in the fall
        G                                          D
Oh, the railroad trains, the bus and planes are picking up the slack
     E7                                A
He's watching all those river towns slowly turn their backs
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                                          A
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
A                                      G               D
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal
     G                                   D
Well it's too thick to navigate, And it's too thin to plow
    D              A                  D         A            D
So let him go on mama and don't put him down for it now

[Verse 4]
D                                                           A
Well he comes from a real old-time way of life, He had to fight to just learn how
A                                                    G                    D
And he might even have voted for Nixon once but I'm sure he sees that now
      G                                      D
Well Friday night he makes the best damn Gumbo you'd ever want to eat
      E7                                         A
And Saturday morning 'fore everyone's up, he's gone off down to the fleet
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                                          A
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
A                                      G               D
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal

[Verse 5]
D                                             A
You're as pretty as he is ugly and he's the happiest man alive
A                                       G                   D
Somehow you got him thinking that old men are back in style
      G                                          D
Now you see these Oysters Bienville and this baked potato skin
     E7                                 A
I eat 'em so I can grow up an' be, an old man just like him
 
 
[Chorus]
 D                                          A
He's just a feller worked on the river, All his life by a paddle wheel
A                                      G               D
You say he's old fashioned, Well that ain't no big deal
