Muddy Water Video (MV)

Hhmmm
In the shadow of the Kiamichi Mountains
In the bottom of a holler where the river runs through
Sat a broke down shack with a tin roof
Where that son of a bitch drank his 90 proof
My mama walked around with bruises
That she picked up when he got mean
Her same old book of excuses
She'd been rehearsing didn't work on me
So I walked down to the river
With Mama's bloodstained dress in my hands
And I washed that family secret in the dirty stream that keeps it
Muddy Water Muddy Water wash away
Then one night early winter
He walked in with the devil in his eyes
And he drug her down to the river
Where no one else could hear her
Cry cry cry
Went to my room and got Delilah out the closet cocked it locked it
Tiptoed round the broken clock didn't start it but I'll stop it
Jesus please forgive me for the sin I'm getting into
But I've had enough and he ain't gonna hit her again
So I walked down to the river
With that cold steel in my hand
And I dropped that family secret in the dirty stream that keeps it
Muddy Water Muddy Water wash away
And I dropped that family secret in the dirty stream that keeps it
Muddy Water Muddy Water wash away
Wash away
