Creek Will Rise

Well, we were sittin' on a truck bed When it started rainin', she said, "I don't mind" Got her dancin' in a white sundress Couldn't even find one dry thread, my oh my I didn't know what I was getting into I, I wish the four-wheel drive was just two 'Cause a girl like her on a night like this Make a man wanna stay right where he is There's trouble in the way her green eyes are glowin' I'm holdin' on tight, prayin' and hopin' this truck battery dies Or the road's too muddy to drive Wanna stay right here all night If the good Lord's willin', that creek will rise Well, next thing I know I had my blue jeans hangin' on a tree limb She was smilin' at me, pullin' me in Out where the creek bend bends in the yellow moon light Makin' fishin' in the dark come to life Yeah, a girl like her on a night like this Make a man wanna stay right where he is There's trouble in the way her green eyes are glowin' I'm holdin' on tight, prayin' and hopin' this truck battery dies Or the road's too muddy to drive Wanna stay right here all night If the good Lord's willin', that creek will rise Well, it was four in the mornin' when the storm quit stormin' I was fallin' faster than Earnhardt and Gordon Like a dirt road Daytona in my heart And we ain't even got to the best part We didn't have a towel, didn't have dry clothes She was smilin' and sayin', "Hold me, I'm cold" We made a blanket out of that sundress And the radio won't even let me tell you the rest 'Cause a girl like her on a night like this Make a man wanna stay right where he is There's trouble in the way her green eyes are glowin' I'm holdin' on tight, prayin' and hopin' this truck battery dies Or the road's too muddy to drive Wanna stay right here all night If the good Lord's willin', that creek will rise Well, that creek will rise
