Stuck in the Mud of Love

Didn’t know where I was goin’

So I thought I’d stick my toe in

Just a little down and dirty affair

My spirits started lifting

But the ground below was shifting

Gave me a hell of a scare

Tried to get out with haste

But I’m in up to my waist

I’m stuck in the mud of love.

Used to be I could have a romance nightly

Or turn it down politely

But I was the one at the wheel

I could stay or I could go

Take it fast or take it slow

I could do whatever I feel

But now I’m losing all control

Sinking deeper in the hole

Stuck in the mud of love

One little kiss and

I’m sinking in quicksand

My life flashed before my eyes

You know I slid and then I slipped

And now it’s got me in its grip

Here’s a little word to the wise

A little bit of grime

Might feel like a good time

But there’s consequences you can’t foresee

Well listen to me buddy

When it comes to getting muddy

You do not want to wind up like me

It’s deep and it’s profound

So stay on solid ground

Don’t get stuck in the mud of love

Aaah I’m in up to my eyeballs

Ain’t nobody gonna hear my calls

There’s no hope of rescue for me

I think it’s now beyond a doubt

There’s just no way I’m getting out

And I ain’t never gonna be free

This love is like no other

With kisses that can smother

It’s taking all my breath away

I’m gonna wallow in this mire

Till it swallows me entire

Any day could be my final day

Look at the state of me

Is this the fate of me

Stuck in the mud of love

Look at the state of me

Is this the fate of me

Stuck
