lyrics

Lyrics:

Rambling all over this Promised Land,
Seeking a helping hand.
Trying to keep my head from sinking into the sand.
'Cause there is too much on my mind,
And it makes me keep on wondering why...
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake tonight?

See the rich men's names on the skyscrapers,
And the poor boys down on the corner.
Their food can't fill their mouths and their clothes don't suit the weather.
You will be busted if you don't do right,
Put into jail for the rest of your life.
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake tonight?

Oh the city is burning and the bright lights make me blind.
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake tonight?

I can hear the wolves at the midnight howl,
See the vultures going round and round.
Must be some way to get out but i just don't know to how.
No one taught me how to fight,
In this world where everything will bite.
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake tonight?

Oh the city is burning and the bright lights make me blind.
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake tonight?

Oh the city is burning and I can't tell wrong from right!
So won't you let me go back to my muddy lake...
I said I’d rather go back to the muddy lake tonight.
