Miss Magnolia

Well Miss Magnolia

You just can't keep, keep me to yourself

You know I've been here way to long

You had me working all day long

No I'm not cut out and I won't be found to make a man for you,

No, no

La na na na

La na na na

Well if you see her, make sure you tell, tell her that I'm gone

To find a land beyond where I'll be free

The riverboat and me

A rolling stone, but by and by I'll find me home

La na na na

La na na na

I wrote a letter in the mail it said:

"A steed don't need a mare Dearest Magnolia"

Well put flowers on the grave, and may the headstone read:

"We could get along but we never did belong"

Well Miss Magnolia

You just can't keep, keep me to yourself

You know I've been here way to long

You had me working all day long

No I'm not cut out and I won't be found to make a man for you

No, no
