Be kind to me Ain't got nobody, ain't got no one to look after me I didn't choose this life but it chose me The more the tide rolls in, time rolls away from me On a river bank Ain't never taken anything that don't belong to me But when she decides to return, she'll take everything she sees A copperhead might strike you dead before you've seen anything Oh mama, seems like the water's been ten feet high And I just don't understand why it makes me cry If I can keep it together 'til the spring When that damn river runs dry I'll count my blessings, just like the stars That are in the sky When it all comes down I'll be here to clean up and claim my ground You wouldn't know mother nature's power if she never made a sound I can't be too proud, she's got me cryin' out loud Oh mama, seems like the water's been ten feet high And I just don't understand why it makes me cry If I can keep it together 'til the spring When that damn river runs dry I'll count my blessings, just like the stars That are in the sky I'll count my blessings, just like the stars That are in the sky
