Lyrics of Bobby Wallisch Jr. & Acid.Prof – The Muddy Waters of Time

Last night I dreamed of Muddy Waters
And of T-Bone Walker too
They asked what’s up, pal, how are you doin’
How come you look so blue?
I was thinking of gone friends
Of all the things I failed to do
So many days spent on nonsense
I said according to truth
Today I’m frumpy and grumpy
My shaky hand’s weak and cold
Can’t smell, can’t hear and got clumsy
I tell y’all, I done got old
And on the banks of the river
I see long gone friends of mine
And I realize that I’m sailing
The muddy waters of time
Sure I got good days and bad days
And I have moments of joy
My body still loves sun rays
I have the kids and my boy
He makes me relive past seasons
Makes me see the world as new
Oh son, if only I was given
Just one more summer with you
And on the banks of the river
I see long gone friends of mine
And I realize that I’m sailing
The muddy waters of time – of my time
Once more sitting on Beale Street
Seeing my life, son, in your eyes
Drinking some beers of sweet oblivion
Looking into the blue sky
And on the banks of the river
I see long gone friends of mine
And I realize that I’m sailing – forever sailing
The muddy waters of time
I’ve been around here for quite a long time
I tell y’all I done got old
But now my life makes a good rhyme
And my heart is still bold
And on the banks of the river
I see long gone friends of mine
And I realize that I’m sailing – forever sailing
The muddy waters of time
Last night I dreamed of Muddy Waters again
And of T-Bone Walker too
They asked what’s up, pal, how are you doin’
How come you look so cool? (You changed a lot, but in a good way!)
And on the banks of the river
I see long gone friends of mine
And I realize that I’m sailing – forever sailing
The muddy waters of time
I’ve been around here for quite a long time
I tell y’all I done got old
But now my life makes a good rhyme
And my heart is still bold
