Lyric

It's been a part of me since I was in my bare feet

Rope swing two knots high

Just a couple other kids and I

Cooling off the summertime

A-wading in my church clothes, preacher saying, "Hold your nose"

Mama on the riverbank crying

Right after I got baptized

I stuck around and I cast a line

Now we'd sneak off in the middle of the night

Making night moves where the catfish bites

Skipping rocks on it, sit and talk on it

We drank so much that we could walk on it

It's all I've ever known

Yeah, it's where I'm supposed to be

And I swear God made

Muddy water for me

I wouldn't know it standing on the shore

But it's holy underneath

And I swear that God made

Muddy water for me

In a world of I-don't-knows, I can find my way home

Where the red dirt mixes with rain

'Cause it's only gonna flow one way

Like the blood running through my veins

Now I've seen the ocean from a hotel room

It's a little too salty, a little too blue for me

Now all I need

Is to drift away down some no name stream

It's all I've ever known

And it's where I'm supposed to be

And I swear God made

Muddy water for me

I wouldn't know it standing on the shore

But it's holy underneath

And I swear that God made

Muddy water for me

Oh, won't you take me on down to the muddy water?

It's all I've ever known

Yeah, it's where I'm supposed to be

And I swear that God made

Muddy water for me

I wouldn't know it standing on the shore

But it's holy underneath

And I swear that God made

Muddy water for me

That one day when I get called home

Be a path up to the creek

'Cause I swear God made

Muddy water for me

- It's already the end -
