Muddy Water lyrics
(J. Bundrick)
Mary, grab the baby, the river's rising Muddy water
taking back the land The old-frame house, she can't take-a one more
beating Ain't no use to stay and make a stand
Well the morning
light shows water in the valley Daddy's grave just went below the
line Things to say, you just can't take em with ya This flood will
swallow all you've left behind
Won't be back to start all
over Cause what I felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the
river's rising Muddy water taking back my home The road is gone, there's
just one way to leave here Turn my back on what I've left below Shifting
land, broken farms around me Muddy water's changing all I
know
It's hard to say just what I'm losing Ain't never felt so
all alone
Mary, take the child, the river's rising Muddy water
taking back my home
Won't be back to start all over Cause what I
felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the river's
rising Muddy water's changing all I know Muddy water's changing all I
know Lord, this muddy water is taking back my home
