I was born on the muddy water

I didn't know right from wrong

my mom she said look here son

I'll show you how it's done

take you a woman and treat her right

she'll be by your side night and day

the first time you deceive her

you've broken her spell

then I had bad luck

like a fool I fell where I stood

I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied

tryin' to find a dry place to hide

to hide.



But I'd rather sleep that say a word

I don't believe a word that's heard

the first time I deceived you

I held it inside

take you a woman and treat her right

she'll be by your side night and day

the first time you deceive her

you've broken her spell

then I had bad luck

I held it inside

like a fool I smiled on my pride

I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied

tryin' to find a dry place to hide

to hide.



I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied

tryin' to find a dry place to hide

to hide.



I was walking in the rain
