Muddy water round my feet

Muddy water in the street

Just Gods don't shelter

Down on the Delta

Muddy water in my shoes

Rockin' to them low-down blues

They live in ease comfort down there

I declare

Been away

A year today

To wander and roam

I don't care

It's muddy there

But see it's my home

Got my toes turned Dixie way

Round the Delta let me lay

My heart cries out for muddy water
