lord now the rain [bad word] 

muddy water
rising up
you know i feel you
in my iron lung
muddy water
celestial flood
you know i feel you
in my iron lung

oh baby don’t it feel so bad
muddy water
drowning in the rain
now the rain [bad word] 

muddy water
pillar to post
how do i bleed you?
just like a ghost
muddy water
heaven’s son
you are the bullet
you are the gun

oh baby don’t it feel so bad
muddy water
drowning in the rain
now the rain [bad word] 

muddy water
be my grave
you are the master
i’ve been the slave
muddy water [bad word] rising up
you know i feel you
in my iron lung
