Floating Bridge

(album: Low Country Blues - 2011)

Well, I never will forget that floating bridge
Well, I never will forget that floating bridge
Well, I never will forget that ol' floating bridge
Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid

When I was going down I throwed up my hands
Yeah, when I was going down I throwed up my hands
Now, when I was going down I throwed up my hands
Lord, please, please take me on dry land

Now, they carried me out the water an' they laid me on the bank
Now, they carried me out the water an' they laid me on the bank
They carried me out the water, they laid me on the bank
About a gallon of muddy water I had drank

Now, they dried me off an' they laid me on the bed
Now, they dried me off an' they laid me on the bed
Now, they dried me off, they laid me on the bed
Don't like muddy water running through my head

Now, my mother often taught me, don't you be no bum
But my mother often taught me, don't you be no bum
But my mother often taught me, son, don't you be no bum
Go somewhere settle down find you someone

Now, the people standing on the bridge was screaming an' crying
Well, the people on the bridge was screaming an' crying
Now, the people on the bridge was standing screaming an' crying
Lord, I thought sure that I was dying

Well, I never will forget that floating bridge
Well, I never will forget that floating bridge
I never will forget that ol' floating bridge
Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid
Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid
