Muddy Water

Daddy was clappin', Mama was cryin'
The Pentecost preacher was saying amen
Went down lost and came up found
Eleven years old, I was born again
Oh I, I found the answer in the river that day
Oh I, I saw the light, I saw the way

Falling back into that muddy water
Arms stretched out like angel wings
Everything's clear in that muddy water
This Kentucky daughter got her heart washed clean
In muddy water

Little girl's gone, got a big girl's life
And big girls have touch calls to make
Buy or rent, career or kids, is he really the one
Which fork to take
Sometimes it's all too much, I just can't see
Oh I, I know the place I need to be

Falling back into that muddy water
Arms stretched out like angel wings
Everything's clear in that muddy water
This Kentucky daughter got her heart washed clean
In muddy water

Oh muddy water, oh muddy water
Wash over me, set me free

Falling back into that muddy water
Arms stretched out like angel wings
Everything's clear in that muddy water
This Kentucky daughter got her heart washed clean
In muddy water

Falling back into that muddy water
Arms stretched out like angel wings
Everything's clear in that muddy water
This Kentucky daughter got her heart washed clean
In muddy water

In muddy water

That muddy water
Wash over me
Set me free
