Muddy River

I was dreaming 'bout her love

Thoughts I'm thinking of

Like the paddlewheel turning

It keeps me moving on

Hazy sunshine on my mind

Takes me back to another time

When the living was easy

And the river kept rolling on

Mississippi I'm at your side

But she is gone and I'm out of my mind

She couldn't live with my jealous bone

Now this broken heart and me are all alone

Muddy river deep and wide

Tennessee on the other side

That's where you'll find her

Nashville's singing her song

With the sun sinking at my back

The moon rising in the black

Of a lonely evening

And the river keeps rolling on

When the one you love leaves you cold

And you've got no one to hold

What can you do

Like the river you move on

I was dreaming 'bout her love

Muddy river deep and wide
