If the good Lord's willing and the creek stays down
|
I'll be in your arms time the moon come around
|
For a taste of love that's shining in your eyes
|
If the rooster crows at the crackin' of the dawn
|
I'll be there just as sure as you're born
|
If the good Lord's willing and the creeks don't rise
|
I'll comb my hair down brush my teeth
|
Shine up slick up dress up neat
|
Get everything looking just right
|
Cause I want to look pretty when I see you tonight
|
Just as sure as the rabbits are a jumping in the hollow
|
I'll be there you can bet your bottom dollar
|
If the good Lord's willing and the creeks don't rise
|
[ guitar ]
|
If the good Lord's willing and the creek stays low
|
I'll be there a knockin' at your door
|
With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize
|
I'll wear my suit my Sunday best I'll be there lookin' my best
|
If the good Lord's willing and the creeks don't rise
|
I'll feed the mules and slop the hogs feed the cows and chop all the logs
|
Get all of my working done cause tonight we're gonna have lots of fun
|
Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man
|
I'll be there with a ring for your hand
|
If the good Lord's willing and the creek don't rise
|
