Muddy River Lyrics & Chords By The Okee Dokee Brothers

Three miles to go till we’re back on the Muddy River
My fishin’ stick and string is what I’m gunna give her
With a crawler on the end, walkin’ barefoot with my friend
Goin’ back on the Muddy River with them fishin’ blues again

Two miles to go till we’re back on the Muddy River
That ice better be gone or my toes’ll start to shiver
Them fish’ll wanna bite so we’ll cook ‘em and eat all right
Goin’ back on the Muddy River with them fishin’ blues tonight

One mile to go till we’re back on the Muddy River
Better make a big catch so we’ll get to deliver
A dozen fish a tin to our neighbor’s friends and kin
Goin’ back on the Muddy River with them fishin’ blues again

We made it 3 long miles and now we’re sittin’ on our canoes
Catchin’ lots fish but we still got them fishin’ blues
Cuz even if we catch a big old whale --from this here river bed
We’ll always think there’s a bigger fish 3 miles up ahead

That’s why we’re singing the blues, on a river bed
We got the fishin’ blues, cuz we can’t stop lookin’ ahead
