Muddy Water

Lyrics

Baby, we've got to have us a little talk
 Gon' have to pack up my things, I'm gonna walk
 You say a dollar goes from hand to hand
 But before I see you go from woman to woman
 I'd rather drink muddy water
 Sleep out in a hollow log, yes I would
 I love you baby, but you just won't be fair
 I don't believe you know how to be on the square
 Now go on and have your fun and if you must
 But before I have another man that I cannot trust
 I'd rather drink muddy water
 Sleep out in a hollow log, yeah
 Be real, don't forget what we had, hey yeah
 ♪
 You promised me you were gonna live by the golden rule
 I work all day and walk just like a fool
 For you, my kisses are sweet as they can be
 But before I see you make a stone fool out of me
 I'd rather drink muddy water
 Yes, I'd rather drink muddy water
 I'd rather drink muddy water
 Oh yes, I would
 I'd rather drink muddy water
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes I would
 Show me the way, way, way, way, way down
 To that place I can find that muddy water
 I'll go ahead and turn it on up
 I say I'd rather drink muddy water
 I'd rather drink muddy, muddy, muddy water
 Sleep out in a hollow log
