Murky Mud River

by Johnny Crimson

Take me back down to the swamp
I'm goin'
Red moon a beggin'
Bull frogs a callin'
Were not safe tonight in the moonlight

Murky Mud River
I'm comin' home to you

Country boy on a log
jut a guttin' that catfish Ohh
Enemies waitin' round the corner
Me and my boy rushin' to the water
Hound dog a singin'
Howlin' in the moonlight

Home at the shack
stringin' up what we're catchin'
Banjo on my knee
Hound dog just a messin'

Folk comin' to me
Swamp rocks through me
Murky Mud River
I wanna crawl back to ya

In the mornin' we'll get our riverboat a chuggin'
Talkin' to the trees
Dream about a lovin'
Me and my hound
Tripppin' through the swamp life

Author's Note: Sometimes you have to detach. Thanks to my wife for hating this and John Fogerty for the inspiration.
