Mud Slide Slim

[Verse]

Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon

Whoa, Mud Slide, I'm depending on you

I don't know but I've been told

There's a time from time to time

I can't eat, I can't sleep

But I just might move my feet

Because there's nothing like the sound of sweet soul music

To change a young lady's mind

And there's nothing like a walk on down by the bayou

To leave the world behind, whoa

Mud Slide I'm depending upon you

Mister Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon

I've been letting the time go by

Letting the time go by

Yes, I'm letting the time go by

Letting the time go by

I'm going to cash in my hand

And pick upon a piece of land

And build myself a cabin back in the woods

Lord, it's there I'm going to stay

Until there comes a day

When this old world starts to changing for the good

Now the reason I'm smiling

Is over on an island

On a hillside in the woods where I belong

I want to thank Jimmy, Jimmy, John, Nick and Laurie

The No Jets Construction

For setting me down a homestead on the farm, whoa, ooooo

Mud Slide, I'm depending upon you

Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon

Night goes on and on, don't want to come at all

Baby, baby, baby, I know on a Haiti day

Stoney Lee Blue Borne picking on a fretless bass, yeah, yeah

Oil Slick slipping and a sliding and a slapping on

Kootcheroo! Ha ha ha, ha ha ha
