"Lord Willing And The Creek Don't Rise" lyrics

"Lord Willing And The Creek Don't Rise"

Lord willing and the creek don't rise
We'll all be rocking on the riverside
Come on Katie shake them trees
Stick in your toes and wiggle your knees
Meet me on the water near the highway bridge
T-shirts swinging from a white oak limb

Lord do me like a diving duck
Straight to the bottom of a whiskey jug
Ooh-wee baby, come with me
I know a place where we can do as we please
It's only half a mile as the old crow flies
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Lord willing and the creek don't rise
We'll all be rocking on the river side
Come on Katie, shake them trees
Stick in your toes and wiggle your knees
It's only half a mile as the old crow flies
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Jackknife Katie, strut your stuff
Swan dive down from a Tennessee bluff
Moon on the water tickling stream
Old mister copperhead's nothing on me

Lord willing and the creek don't rise
We'll all be rocking on the river tonight
Come on Katie, it ain't no sin
If you wanna get wet just slide right in
It's only half a mile as the old crow flies
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise

Cannonball Katie, everybody's high
There ain't no way to keep your powder dry
Shimmy like a coach-whip, rattle and shake
Heaven help us if the levees break

Lord willing and the creek don't rise
We're gonna have a little party tonight
Come on Katy, it ain't no thing
Peel off your party dress dive on in
It's only half a mile as the old crow flies
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise
It's only half a mile as the old crow flies
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise
