Ol' Muddy River

If you ever come down to the ol' muddy river Then you'll probably gonna catch me catching one there I got a fishing hole and a country girl awaiting on me A honeysuckle bud in her silky brown hair I ain't never been afraid just to get a little dirty Gotta get a little dirty for some good clean fun Day by day the river keeps a rolling Though the years come and go like the evening sun All my life's been wild like the river So he and I really get along just fine Everything easy at the ol' muddy river You know that's where I like to spend all of my time I really found myself at the ol' muddy river When I thought I'd lost more than I could regain I sank my troubles in the slow flowing water just To hold me like an anchor when it floods with rain All my life's been wild like the river So he and I really get along just fine Everything easy at the ol' muddy river You know that's where I like to spend all of my time Preacher man washed me in the old muddy river Last Sunday morning at the break of day light They'll spread my ashes in the old muddy river Lord but I'll be swimming in the river of life All my life's been wild like the river So he and I really get along just fine Everything easy at the ol' muddy river And that's where I like to spend all of my time Yeah you know that's where I like to spend all of my time
