Dinner Cruise

It's a beautiful evening as we wait in line to board our boat Autumn is in the air we require a light coat The Mississippi River waters rejoice in the glowing moonlight We are greeted by the captain encouraging us to kick back and enjoy the night Once aboard a flight of stairs, we must climb with a three-course dinner as our reward The food arrives such a culinary delight with our glasses to welcome the wine soon to be poured On deck a jazz band tunes up to create beautiful music we can dance to Our chance to show our moves with perhaps something new Our journey down the majestic river is about to begin A paddle boat passes all lit up such a dazzling display With all the stunning sights we are about to see along the way A picture postcard we must create, lasting memories here to stay
