[Lynn Anderson - If the Creeks Don't Rise lyrics]

I 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 a willing
And the creek don't rise
Goin' back home to see my mama again
All of my family and all of my friends
Wrap myself in family ties
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise

If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise
Goin' back home where happiness lies
A thousand miles of a black road flies
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise

Tired of chasin' fortune and fame
Tired of tryin' to make mе a name
No one cares if I livе or I die
No one cares but my mama and I
This old world is selfish and cruel
Dog-eat dog that's everyone's rule
These all things ain't money can buy
So I'm goin' back home where
The grass grows high
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise

If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise
Goin' back home where happiness lies
A thousand miles of a black road flies
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise
If the Lord is a willing
And the creek don't rise
