If It Ain't Me Babe

Saw the figure it looked like me
 When we were down in the cypress knees
 My crooked face with the water low
 And I disappeared when the water rose
 Cotton blooms left at your house
 Bit me like a cottonmouth
 The poison ran right through my veins
 And I can't breathe when I hear your name
 If it ain't me, babe, it ain't me
 Right there by your side, like I used to be
 If it ain't me, babe, it ain't me
 I waste all my time hoping it could be
 Sitting high on a river wall
 Calling back to a killdeer call
 Getting high on a river wall
 Calling back to a killdeer call
 If it ain't me, babe, it ain't me
 Right there by your side, like I used to be
 If it ain't me, babe, it ain't me
 I waste all my time hoping it could be
 Take time in yellowwood
 Call your mom like you know you should
 Dance across the kitchen floor
 Don't close that cabinet door
 Sing Neil 'til the song gets old
 Secret Lake is yours, you know?
 I'll see you in a harvest moon
 Think of you, singing harvest moon
 If these words don't mean a thing
 Amber stone on a golden ring
 I'll see you in a harvest moon
 I'll think of you singing harvest moon, oh
 These words don't mean a thing
 Amber stone on a golden ring
 I'll see you in a harvest moon
 I'll think of you singing harvest moon
 If it ain't me, don't waste all your time
 Hoping it could be
