Lyrics for I Wash My Hands In Muddy Water by Marty Robbins:
| | | Artist: | Marty Robbins |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | I Wash My Hands In Muddy Water | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 80 | | | | Lyrics: | I was born in Macon, Georgia
They kept my dad in the Macon jail
Dad said son if you keep
your hands clean
You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail
But I fell in with
bad companions
We robbed a man in Tennessee
The sheriff caught me way up in
Nashville
They locked me up and threw away the key
I asked the jailor when's my time
up
He said son we won't forget
And if you try to keep your hands clean
We may make a
good man of you yet
I couldn't wait to do my sentence
I broke out of the Nashville
jail
I just crossed the line of Georgia
And I can hear them bloodhounds on my
trail
I washed my hands in muddy water
I washed my hands but they didn't come
clean
I tried to do like Daddy told me
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy
stream
Yes I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
