Muddy River Back To You By John D Hale Band 9/22/2012 enjoy some JDHB and go download his other CD's! G F C My daddy died when I was just a child, wasn't two months later, momma's runnin' wild G F C She had her way with the low rent type, fella who likes to drink and fight G F C I hoped like hell it was a passin' thing, before too long she was wearin' his ring G F C F Tried our best to keep it hid, we're still wearin' the scars from the things he did Chorus: F G You think you're a mighty tough man but I beg to differ F G There's a promise made and I plan to keep and I'm hell bent on deliverin' F C F C G I'm gonna wash your sins away without the cut of a blade or the sound of a trigger F C G As I watch your body fade to the bottom of the muddy river He'd come home late, drunk and mean, in the dark of the night you could hear her scream With a heavy hand, a fist like lead, I promised her that I'd see him dead Me and momma we had to plan, he'd be gone when I was a man ???? Still too young to set us free but I can feel the hate build up in me Chorus Solo Turned 18, I got me a job workin' on a riverboat pushing logs He's 'bout to get everything he's due, well me and mommas plan is a-coming true Cinder blocks and a borrowed chain, draggin him down, see him scream my name Oh big muddy, take control, oh big muddy won't you weigh his soul Chorus Solo outro
