Omar & The Howlers - Muddy Springs Road lyrics

I hate to hear that screen door slammin' Hard for me to say goodbye Can't stand to think about leavin' I sure hate to see my momma cry Born and raised a delta child Took off runnin' and got real wild Used to spend my nights down across the tracks Where the whiskey was white and the blues was black No matter where I've been or where I go My heart is never far from old Muddy Springs Muddy Springs Road I fell in with the hoodoo man He put his guitar in my hands Said, "Cat you were born to play the blues It's in your blood that's what you do" Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high Cotton mouth don't think before he strikes Take these memories with me when I go Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road Momma sittin' on the front porch swingin' Sings a lonesome lullaby Daddy puts his arms around her Says, "Son do you have to say goodbye?" You know I've been a lot of places You know I've always sing the blues But momma every road I travel down Gonna bring me home to you Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high Cotton mouth don't think before he strikes Take these memories with me when I go Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high Cotton mouth don't think before he strikes Take these memories with me when I go Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road
