Tin roof leaks when it rains Bullfrogs and crickets sing Wise old hoot owl Watches every thing Moss hanging in the trees Fireflies dancing in the breeze I got heaven sittin' in my front porch swing right next to me Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Winding like an old moonlit high way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Muddy waters wash my cares a way Crawfish boiling in a pot Barefoot on the dock Baby's hanging on me And I know it won't be long Til we pull a cork on that jug of wine Tangled up like kudzu vine Do a little late night lovin' til the fire's gone and we're all alone Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Winding like an old moonlit high way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Muddy waters wash my cares a way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Winding like an old moonlit high way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Muddy waters wash my cares a way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Winding like an old moonlit high way Roll on Roll on Roll on, big river Muddy waters wash my cares a way Let those muddy waters wash my cares a way
