Lyrics:
Oh we boarded the boat on the breast of the river so wide And we left old St. Louis on the crest of that brown muddy tide To the strains of the Delta Queen's band I found myself holding your hand The way we had hoped we would do all that summer and fall Oh the whistle came out, such a deep mellow sound in the night And the echo came back from the shoreline of twinkling lights There was nothing we really could say The river had swept us away Like a present hereafter, the warm sound of laughter As we danced to the Delta Queen Waltz As the big wheel keeps rolling I find myself holding you near With the night time unfolding I'm lucky just having you here As a single wave curls down the shore, we're waltzing away cross the floor As our heart beats assemble, the boat lightly trembles As we dance to the Delta Queen Waltz
