Yes and now I'll swim ashore for I must make it Although I'm up to my neck in high muddy water Now the water's deep and wide Can't hold out long this way If I could spend a time Perhaps I'd find a way
So now I'll swim ashore for I must make it Although I'm up to my neck in high muddy water
Now I see the distance stir and I hear reckless sound And something seems to say well I'm bound for higher ground
So now I'll swim ashore for I must make it Although I'm up to my neck in high muddy water
Now the sun has risen late But I'm safe at last my friend Deep water was my pain But now I've reached the end
Yes now I'll swim ashore and I know I'll make it Although I'm up to my neck in high muddy water
