down into muddy water

now you left me here and went out on the town

i don't know when i've been so down

the sky is dark

the moon's blue

i don't know what i'm gonna do

it's like falling down into muddy water

i've got the sound turned off on my old tv

and the radio's on playin' b.b. king

i watch old movies and i listen to the blues

sittin' here waitin' up on you

it's like falling down into muddy water

the clock on the wall keeps rollin' on

two o'clock

three o'clock

four o'clock

five

and baby

you still ain't home

i fall sound asleep in a straight-backed chair

morning comes and you still ain't here

oh lord

i've had enough

holdin' on to faithless love

it's like falling down into muddy water

the clock on the wall keeps rollin' on

two o'clock

three o'clock

four o'clock

five

and baby

you still ain't home

now you left me here and went out on the town

i don't know when i've been so down

the sky is dark

the moon's blue

i don't know what i'm gonna do

it's like falling down into muddy water

it's like falling down into muddy water

i'm falling down

i'm falling down into muddy water

i'm falling down

i'm falling down

down

down into muddy water
