Mud Lyrics
by Guy Clark
Down by the creek where the water goes slow
The green-back heron and the moccasin know
All things come to him who waits
Bb F walk to Dm7 Am
Yet he is lost who hesitates
Life and death just dancing around in the mud
The light comes down through the limbs and the leaves
And dapples the water between the reeds
The air tastes green the bank gets soft
Right about then your shoes come off
You got to get it between your toes the mud
Chorus:
Mud pie mud in your eye
Mud on a snake bite don't you die
Take a little rain take a little dirt
Make a little mud get it on your shirt
When I die please bury me
Down by this old muddy creek
Let the crawfish have their way
It's mud to mud and that's okay
We all just crawled out of the mud
We're all just slogging through the mud.
(Snake Rattle)
