I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water

(Album: S.O.S. 4: Blues For Your Soul - 2023)

Baby, we got to have a little talk
I ought to pack up my things and walk
I know a dollar goes from hand to hand
But before you go from man to man
I'd rather drink muddy water, that's the truth honey
Sleep in a hollow log
She said "why"
I said "this is why"

I love you baby, but you won't be fair
You don't know how to be on the square
Have your fun baby, if you must
Can't do nothing with the woman I can't trust
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log

I work for you like a Georgia mule
My friends all laughed and called me a fool
Your kisses are sweet honey as can be
But before you make a fool out of me
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log

I love you baby, but you won't be fair
You don't know how to be on the square
Have your fun baby, if you must
Can't do nothing with the woman I can't trust
I'd rather drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log
