MUDDY WATER Lyrics

I was born on the muddy water 
I didn't know right from wrong 
my mom she said look here son 
I'll show you how it's done 
take you a woman and treat her right 
she'll be by your side night and day 
the first time you deceive her 
you've broken her spell 
then I had bad luck 
like a fool I fell where I stood 
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied 
tryin' to find a dry place to hide 
to hide. 

But I'd rather sleep that say a word 
I don't believe a word that's heard 
the first time I deceived you 
I held it inside 
take you a woman and treat her right 
she'll be by your side night and day 
the first time you deceive her 
you've broken her spell 
then I had bad luck 
I held it inside 
like a fool I smiled on my pride 
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied 
tryin' to find a dry place to hide 
to hide. 

I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied 
tryin' to find a dry place to hide 
to hide. 

I was walking in the rain.
