Now you left me here
And went on the town
I don't know when I've been so down
The sky is dark
The moon's blue
I don't know what I'm gonna do
It's like fallin' down into muddy water

I've got the sound turned off
On my old TV
And the radio's on
Playin' B.B. King
I watch old movies
And I listen to the blues
Sittin' here waitin' up on you
It's like fallin' down into muddy water

The clock on the wall
Keeps a rollin' on
2 o' clock, 3 o'clock, 4 o' clock, 5
And baby you still ain't home

Well I fall sound asleep
In a straight back chair
The mornin' comes
And you still ain't here
Oh lord, I hear a noise
Holdin' on to faithless love
It's like fallin' down into muddy water

The clock on the wall
Keeps a rollin' on
2 o' clock, 3 o'clock, 4 o' clock, and 5
And baby you still ain't home

Well you left me here
And went on the town
I don't know when I've been so down
The sky is dark
And the, the moon's blue
I don't know what I'm gonna do
It's like fallin' down into muddy water
It's like fallin' down into muddy water

Hey, fallin' down, down, down
Into muddy water
I keep on fallin' down, down, down
Into muddy water
I'm just fallin' down, down
Into muddy water
I keep fallin' down, down
Into muddy water
