moody river

fogerty, john

moody river more deadly than the natalest night

moody river

your muddy water took my baby's life. last saturday evening i came to the old oak tree

that stands beside the river where you were to meet me. on the ground your glove i found with a note addressed to me

it read: 'dear love

i've done you wrong

now i must set you free'. no longer can i live with this hurt and this sin

i just couldn't tell you that guy was just a friend. moody river more deadly than the natalest night

moody river

your muddy water took my baby's life. i looked into the muddy water and what could i see?

i saw a lonely

lonely face just looking back at me. tears in his eyes and the prayer on his lips

and the glove of his lost love was at his fingertips. moody river more deadly than the natalest night

moody river

your muddy water took my baby's life. moody river more deadly than the natalest night

moody river

your muddy water took my baby's life.
