The Marshall Tucker Band - Fly Like An Eagle lyrics

I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat Down to New Orleans Gotta pocket full o'money and a liquor bottle Gonna drink away my dreams Don't really wanna leave Sure I can't stay I'm gonna get on that riverboat And gamble my life away Makes me fly like an eagle Higher and higher every day Cause in my mind and in my dreams I can't get her away Gonna sit down at the poker table Five card stud's my game Gonna try and forget that crazy woman Gonna try and forget her name I don't know how I'll make it But I'll forget her some way This is the time and the only time She ain't gonna get away [Chorus]
