I was born on the muddy water
I didn't know right from wrong
my mom she said look here son
I'll show you how it's done
take you a woman and treat her right
she'll be by your side night and day
the first time you deceive her
you've broken her spell
then I had bad luck
like a fool I fell where I stood
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
tryin' to find a dry place to hide
to hide.
But I'd rather sleep that say a word
I don't believe a word that's heard
the first time I deceived you
I held it inside
take you a woman and treat her right
she'll be by your side night and day
the first time you deceive her
you've broken her spell
then I had bad luck
I held it inside
like a fool I smiled on my pride
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
tryin' to find a dry place to hide
to hide.
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
tryin' to find a dry place to hide
to hide.
