Ol' Muddy River Lyrics

If you ever come down to the ol' muddy river
Then you probably gonna catch me catchin' one there
I got a fishin' hole and a country girl waiting on me
A honey suckle bud and her silky brown here

I ain't never been afraid just to get a little dirty
Gotta get a little dirt for some good clean fun
Day by day the river keeps a rolling
Though the years come and go like the evening sun

All my life's been wild like the river
So me and that river get along just fine
Everything's easy at the ol' muddy river
You know that's where I like to spend all of my time

I really found myself at the ol' muddy river
When I thought I'd lost more than I could regain
I sank my troubles in the slow flowin' water
Just to hold me like a maker when it floods with rain

All my life's been wild like the river
So me and that river get along just fine
Everything's easy at the ol' muddy river
You know that's where I like to spend all of my time

Preacher man wash me in the ol' muddy river
Last Sunday mornin' at the break of day light
They'll spread my ashes in the ol' muddy river
But I'll be swimming in the river of life

All my life's been wild like the river
So me and that river get along just fine
Everything's easy at the ol' muddy river
You know that's where I like to spend all of my time
Yeah you know that's where I like to spend all of my time
