I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water to search that old river bed

I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water

To prove there's no truth in what our friends have said

That's when you cross the bridge the other day

Well you took off my ring and you threw it away

I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water

To try to find the answer there

[ guitar ]

I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water

Though I know it's dark and cold

I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water

To search for that precious little band of gold

It's true it didn't cost much and I could buy more

But you can't buy a heart in a juwelry store

I'm going down twenty feet into that muddy muddy water

To try to find the answer there try to find the answer there

To try to find the answer there try to find the answer there

To try to find the answer there try to find the answer there
