Mud Slide Slim Lyrics - Mud Slide Slim And The Blue Horizon - James Taylor

Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon 

Oh, Mud Slide, I'm dependent on you 

I don't know but I've been told 

There's a time from time to time 

I can't eat, I can't sleep 

But I just might move my feet 

'Cause there's nothing like 

The sound of sweet soul music 

To change a young lady's mind 

And there's nothing like a 

Walk on down by the bayou 

To leave the world behind 

Mud Slide I'm depending upon you 

Mister Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon 

I've been letting the time go by 

Letting the time go by 

Yes, I'm letting the time go by 

Letting the time go by 

I'm gonna cash in my hand and 

Pick up on a piece of land 

And build myself a cabin back in the woods 

Lord, it's there I'm gonna stay 

Until there comes a day 

When this old world starts to changing for the good 

Now the reason I'm smiling is over on a island 

On a hillside in the woods where I belong 

I wanna thank Jimmy, Jimmy, John, Nick and Laurie 

The No Jets Construction for setting 

Me down a homestead on the farm 

Mud Slide, I'm depending upon you 

Mister Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon
