Lyrics

MUD DRIFT

He came down from the Badlands

Where the Black Hills grow

He came bearing a poor man?s mouth

Muddy shoes and broken nose

Ma?am you gotta quarter?

I got nothing here to drink

Spare me a dollar, there honey

And I tell ya what I think

I moan and groan, it all went wrong

I got nothing much to show

Had me some money once, honey

But I lost it to the blow

Just need a leg up and to find some better shoes

For now, it?s me with no sign of relief

Sitting here singing you the blues

Times when the warm winds blow

He can still smell the sweet

And longs for days gone by

When Lady Luck was at his feet

He fell when the mud drift came

It brought him to his knees

He fell into the mud drift and he drifted, drifted..

And he never came back

Cause he drifted, drifted..

Oh, he says

I moan and groan, it all went wrong

I got nothing much to show

Had me some money once honey

but I lost it to the blow

Just need a leg up and to find some better shoes

For now it?s me with no sign of relief

Sitting here singing you the blues

I?m drifting away..
