Lyrics John Fogerty

Swamp River Days

Two-lane

Shinin' in the july dust

Heat risin' off the road

Out in front of my truck

Pulled my pick-up over the hill

Down the slide gravel through the cat-tails

Give me those swamp river days again

Sat down in the shade of a cotton wood tree

Pretty soon the swamp critters' callin' me

Skinny river kids swim in my mind

Hucklebums on cane-pole time

Give me those swamp river days again

Old memories out in the crick

Playin' hooky with a hobo stick

Old memories startin' to fade

Take me away

Cody river playin' on the radio

Takes me back to a girl I used to know

Sweet Susie do you think about me

That was good as it's ever gonna be

Give me those swamp river days again

Give me those swamp river days again
