Creek Will Rise

Well, we were sittin' on a truck bed

When it started rainin', she said, "I don't mind"

Got up, dancin' in a white sundress

Couldn't even find one dry thread, my oh my

I, 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

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 bed bends in the yellow moonlight

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
