I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water - Johnnie Taylor

Babe, we got to have little talk

I ought to pack up my things an walk

I know a dollar goes hand to hand

Before I met you, go from man to man

I’d rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log

'Yas, yas'

What’s the use, just like a Georgia mule

My friends laughed

And they called me a fool

Your kisses are as sweet as can be Before I’ll let you make a sap out of me

I’d rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log

'Beat it out there, papa

'What I’m talkin' about there'

(guitars & bass)

Love you baby but you won’t be fair

You don’t know how to be on the square

Have your fun baby if you must

Before I’ll have a woman, I can’t trust

I’d rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log

'Yas, yas'

(Da, da-da-da, da-da)

(Da, da-da-da, da-da)

'Play it!'

(Da-da-da)

(Da-da-da)

(Da-da-da)

(Da-da-da)

(Da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da).
