Guy Clark - Mud Lyrics






Now down by the creek where the water goes slow
The green-backed heron and the moccasin know
All things come to him who waits
Yet he is lost who hesitates
Life and death just dancin' 'round in the mud

Well, 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

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

Now 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

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

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

Now, we're all just sloggin' through the mud

    Now down by the creek where the water goes slow
    The green-backed heron and the moccasin know

    All things come to him who waits

    Yet he is lost who hesitates

    Life and death just dancin' 'round in the mud



    Well, 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



    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



    Now 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



    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



    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



    Now, we're all just sloggin' through the mud
