Shamp put her eye
on a coal -burning paddle wheel

He told the captain she'd been the cause of
all the trouble down at the floor and knee

Said he'd be damned if
he could understand
why the judge set her free
D
That six -foot, black -haired,
green -eyed woman
G
called the Louisiana Gambling Queen

Rome, Mississippi, take me on down
He got word from a whiskey
-tradin' Frenchman
Headin' on out of town
D
He said a lot of good men had tried her
G
And a lot of good men went down
That night in a fast game, a
five -point stunt
At the end of a river street
D
A soul who's a loudmouth gambler man
G
Got blown off his cheatin' feet
C
