If I never get to heaven I don't care   I been down to the crossroads   And there ain't no devil down there   They got the whole town shakin' out in L.A.   They got the blues in Mississippi   I'm going back some day      Well I ain't gonna fuss and fight   And I ain't stayin' up all night   Worryin' 'bout the things that I can't change   Let everybody think I'm a little bit strange      'Cause I love muddy water   It's dirty but it feels alright   I love muddy water   I'm ready, I'm ready for the blues tonight   Oh yes I am      On my way to California, my old car broke down   You know what, I left it sittin' right there   And I walked on into town, I found a cheap Motel   I got a twenty dollar room   And when I woke up the next day   You know what it was four o'clock in the afternoon      Well I ain't gonna fuss and fight   And I ain't stayin' up all night   Worryin' 'bout the things that I can't change   Let everybody think I'm a little bit strange      'Cause I love muddy water   It's dirty but it feels alright   I love muddy water   And I'm ready for the blues tonight      Now why should I worry all night and day   'Cause whatever it is, it's gonna be okay   Oh yeah      Well I love muddy water   It's dirty but it feels alright   I love muddy water   I'm ready for the blues tonight      Oh, and I love muddy water   It's dirty but it feels alright   I love muddy water   I'm ready, ready for the blues tonight      Well I love muddy water   It's dirty but it feels alright   I love muddy water   I'm ready, ready for the blues tonight      Yeah, it's dirty but it feels alright   Muddy water   I'm ready, ready for the blues tonight
