If the Creek Don't Rise

歌詞

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 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 'cept 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 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 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
