If it wasn't so dark out here tonight I know I'd be a hell of a sight Covered in Arkansas clay from head to toe If I told you once, I told you twice You better not touch my Clementine But you didn't listen, now you're fillin' up this hole Hey buddy, hey buddy, ain't that Mississippi muddy And this time of year, she takes what you give her So tonight I lay me down to sleep And pray my soul and my secret to keep Between you, me and the river It's been a long week working overtime That's why I got home early tonight And when I saw your car I could smell the trouble So I turned off my headlights And saw your silhouettes through candlelight And I went to the shed to get my shovel Hey buddy, hey buddy, ain't that Mississippi muddy And this time of year, she takes what you give her So tonight I'll lay me down to sleep And pray my soul and a secret to keep Between you, me and the river Yeah, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh They're gonna come knockin', it's a matter of time They'll ask about my alibi And where Clementine ran off to, they'll wonder I won't tell 'em she's cheatin' on me But I'll smile at the memory Of my diamond on her hand as she went under Hey buddy, hey buddy, ain't that Mississippi muddy And this time of year, she takes what you give her So tonight I'll lay me down to sleep And pray my soul and a secret to keep Between you, me and the river Between you, me and the river
