Muddy Water (Live at Red Rocks ’22)
Seems we have a package
Don't do it, man, it's a letter bomb
This is really cool, thank you
Aw, it's cute

[Verse 1]
It's hot, it's mean, summer, to me
Green grass, won't last, sky blue, me too
Helicopter flying over shark bait, shark bite
Cover up, sunburn, leather skin, heatstroke
Make me dash across the amber coals to meet the sea
So cold it freezes me, my teeth are chattering
Well give me over to the river, my place that loves me
Gum leaves and tеa trees, the river is immortal
I'm parched, I'll cark thе salty spray arrests
And no amount of bottled water, could bottle the stress
I think I’ll stop breathing and sink, I'm a boy, I'm not a buoy
I'm paralyzed, I'm paranoid, out of my element, okay

[Refrain]
I prefer the muddy water
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water, yeah

[Verse 2]
It's hot, it's mean, the beach, to me
Green grass, won't grow, sky blue, me too
I don't care for cricket, and I don’t care for waves
I don't care for amour propre or sandy bays
So I'll jump into the river when you jump into the sea
I feel the hungry fishes come to nibble at my feet
I lay upon the driftwood underneath the willow tree
And let the muscle men on the beach, bask in vanity
I shall choose this life for me
Any day, anyway, any day, anyway, any day, anyway, okay
[Refrain]
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water, woo

[Instrumental]

[Refrain]
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
Well I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
Well I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
And I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I prefer the muddy water
Well I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
Well I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
And I prefer the muddy water (I prefer the muddy water)
I- fer-

Interesting, thank you
Sometimes when you jam, it's shit
Sometimes when you jam, it's good
In our case, it's always good
