Muddy, Muddy River

[D]There’s a river, a muddy, muddy river
That rolls right by my door[A]
There’s a river, a muddy, muddy river
That rolls right by my [D]door

[D]There sits my woman don’t think she ain’t
A [G]little bit of devil, a little bit of saint
[D]I want to kiss her but I know I can’t
Cross the [A]muddy, muddy, muddy, muddy [D]river
Cross the [A]muddy, muddy, muddy, muddy, mud[A7]dy, muddy river     [D]

There sits my woman on the other side
Crying tears she can’t hide
I can’t walk and I can’t ride
Cross the muddy, muddy, muddy, muddy river

There sits my woman, she knows I’m late
Hope her love don’t turn to hate
Just how long will a woman wait
Cross the muddy, muddy, muddy, muddy river
