MUDDY RIVER

What if the rumors are true? ~
What if we haven't a clue? ~
What if our treasures are sent down a muddy river?
Oh, that muddy river brings us down.

What if conspiracy queries ...
hold some lecherous theories...
Will you think on the sweet life and still applaud?
Oh, that muddy river brings us down.

Chorus:
There'll always be mud in the springtime river
There'll always be crud/CRAP in a human liver
Lord, roll us on and then deliver
through the flow... blatherin' crow OH!
Swimmin' in that muddy river we go!

What if the people you look to
a 'muck up, and don't even notice you
What if they thought you were floating so well with the minnows?
Oh, that muddy river brings us down.

Chorus: There'll always be mud in the springtime river....

Bridge:
What if what is precious is stronger than you?
What if God is not a bit surprised?
What if that muddy river drains into the ocean blue~
and you and I are safely found on the other side?

Chorus: There'll always be mud in the springtime river....
