If The Creek Don`t Rise — текст песни (Liz Anderson)

Been so lonesome I wanna go home ain`t been home in ever so long
Goin` back home where happiness lies if the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise
Goin` back home and see my mama again all of my family all of my friends
Wrap myself in family ties if the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise
If the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise goin` back home where happiness lies
A thousand miles as the black crow flies if the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise
If the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise
[ guitar ]
Tired of chasin` fortune and fame tired of tryin` to make me a name
No one cares if I live or I die no one cares `sept my mama and I
This old world is selfish and cruel dog-eat-dog that`s everyone`s rule
Miss those things that money can`t buy
So I`m goin` back home where the grass grows high
If the Lord is willing and the creek don`t rise
If the Lord is willing...
Goin` back home and see my mama again...
