Mary, grab the baby, the river`s rising..Muddy water taking back the land,
Edited on Sun Aug-28-05 06:47 PM by henslee
The old-frame house, she can`t take-a one more beating
Ain`t no use to stay and make a stand
Well the morning light shows water in the valley
Daddy`s grave just went below the line
Things to say, you just can`t take em with ya
This flood will swallow all you`ve left behind
Won`t be back to start all over
Cause what I felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the river`s rising
Muddy water taking back my home
The road is gone, there`s just one way to leave here
Turn my back on what I`ve left below
Shifting land, broken farms around me
Muddy water`s changing all I know
It`s hard to say just what I`m losing
Ain`t never felt so all alone
Mary, take the child, the river`s rising
Muddy water taking back my home
Won`t be back to start all over
Cause what I felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the river`s rising
Muddy water`s changing all I know
Muddy water`s changing all I know
Lord, this muddy water is taking back my home

Muddy Water Lyrics (Nick Cave)
