THE GRASCALS
"Roll Muddy River"
(Betty Sue Perry)

Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on muddy river
I've got a notion you go to the ocean
Roll on muddy river, roll on muddy river

I've got a baby in Tennessee
Who's long been awaiting for a little ole me
Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on

New Orleans or the Old Saint Louie
Stop in Memphis, Minneapolis
Back in Nashville I'll be through
So roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on

Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on muddy river
I've got a notion you go to the ocean
Roll on muddy river, roll on muddy river

I've got a baby in Tennessee
Who's long been awaiting for a little ole me
Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on

Well, I love you but you just call it fate
You and I are gonna separate
You'll be here but she won't wait
So roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on

Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on muddy river
I've got a notion you go to the ocean
Roll on muddy river, roll on

I've got a baby in Tennessee
Who's long been awaiting for a little ole me
Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on
Roll muddy river, roll on muddy river
Roll on muddy river, roll on
