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' around 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 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
