The Okee Dokee Brothers - Muddy River lyrics

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
