Liz Anderson - If The Creek Don't Rise lyrics

Been so lonesome I wanna go home ain't been home in ever so long

Goin' back home where happiness lies if the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise

Goin' back home and see my mama again all of my family all of my friends

Wrap myself in family ties if the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise

If the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise goin' back home where happiness lies

A thousand miles as the black crow flies if the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise

If the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise

[ guitar ]

Tired of chasin' fortune and fame tired of tryin' to make me a name

No one cares if I live or I die no one cares 'sept my mama and I

This old world is selfish and cruel dog-eat-dog that's everyone's rule

Miss those things that money can't buy

So I'm goin' back home where the grass grows high

If the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise

If the Lord is willing...

Goin' back home and see my mama again...
