There is this place just north of nothing
In the middle of nowhere where I come from
This is the only place I ever knew
These are the faces that saw me through

This is the dirt road where I learned to drive
These are the years that flew right by
This is the place where I met the maker
Just between the Ozarks and the Mississippi Delta

Said hello nothing you are my homeland
Why won't you take me as I am
Let your hot water roll over me
Let this muddy water roll down to the sea

I've got this darkness that I can't seem to hook
Like your cotton fields or your history books
I know I had a lot to say 
But why couldn't you try to meet me halfway

Said hello nothing you are my homeland
Why won't you take me as I am
Let your hot water roll over me
Let this muddy water roll down to the sea

You are landlocked
You dirt road island
I cannot swim to you
But at least I'm trying
Just throw my ashes in the Saline River
That's the only way I'll be delivered

Said hello nothing you are my homeland
Why won't you take me as I am
Let your hot water roll over me
Let this muddy water roll down to the sea
