I hate to hear that screen door slammin`
Hard for me to say goodbye
Can`t stand to think about leavin`
I sure hate to see my momma cry
Born and raised a delta child
Took off runnin` and got real wild
Used to spend my nights down across the tracks
Where the whiskey was white and the blues was black
No matter where I`ve been or where I go
My heart is never far from old Muddy Springs
Muddy Springs Road
I fell in with the hoodoo man
He put his guitar in my hands
Said Cat you were born to play the blues
It`s in your blood that`s what you do
Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high
Cotton mouth don`t think before he strikes
Take these memories with me when I go
Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road
Momma sittin` on the front porch swingin`
Sings a lonesome lullaby
Daddy puts his arms around her
Says Son do you have to say goodbye
You know I`ve been a lot of places
You know I`ve always sing the blues
But momma every road I travel down
Gonna bring me home to you
Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high
Cotton mouth don`t think before he strikes
Take these memories with me when I go
Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road
Sun is hot and the sugar cane grows high
Cotton mouth don`t think before he strikes
Take these memories with me when I go
Miss my home down Muddy Springs Road
