ROLL ON MUDDY RIVER

------------------------chorus----------------------------
ROLL ON, MUDDY RIVER, ROLL ON, TO THE SEA
FLOWING DOWN, DOWN THRU THE VALLEY
WHERE MY HOMESTEAD USED TO BE
-----------------------------------------------------------
NOW LISTEN HERE MUDDY RIVER
FOR I WANNA TALK TO YOU
YOU 'D BE CAREFULL WHERE YOU'RE GOIN'
OR I'LL PUT A DAM ON YOU

FLOWING WIDE, FLOWING DEEP
OVERFLOWING BANKS SO STEEP
SOMTIMES PEACEFUL AND SO MILD
OTHER TIMES YOU'RE RUNNING WILD

IN THE SUMMER WHEN IT'S HOT
YES YOUR WATER'S NICE AND COOL
BUT BEFORE I SWIM ACROSS
YOU MUST TAKE ME FOR A FOOL

NOW MUDDY RIVER GO AWAY
AND I GO MY WAY ALONG
YOU GO BACK TO THE OCEAN
AND I'LL GO BACK TO MY HOME
