Floating Bridge

Well, I never will forget that floatin' bridge

Well, I never will forget that floatin' bridge

Well, I never will forget that ol' floatin' bridge

Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid

When I was goin' down I throwed up my hands

Yeah, when I was goin' down I throwed up my hands

Now, when I was goin' down I throwed up my hands

Lord, please, please take me on dry land

Now, they carried me out the water an' they laid me on the bank

Now, they carried me out the water an' they laid me on the bank

They carried me out the water, they laid me on the bank

About a gallon of muddy water I had drank

Now, they dried me off an' they laid me on the bed

Now, they dried me off an' they laid me on the bed

Now, they dried me off, they laid me on the bed

Don't like muddy water runnin' through my head

Now, my mother often taught me, don't you be no bum

But my mother often taught me, don't you be no bum

But my mother often taught me, son, don't you be no bum

Go somewhere settle down find you someone

Now, the people standin' on the bridge was screamin' an' cryin'

Well, the people on the bridge was screamin' an' cryin'

Now, the people on the bridge was standin' screamin' an' cryin'

Lord, I thought sure that I was dyin'

Well, I never will forget that floatin' bridge

Well, I never will forget that floatin' bridge

I never will forget that ol' floatin' bridge

Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid

Tell me, five minutes underwater when I was hid
