- Ted Daigle - I washed my hands in muddy water Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- I was born (*) in Macon, Georgia
- They kept my Daddy in the Macon jail
- He said, Son, if you keep your hands clean, uh huh
- You wont hear those bloodhounds on your trail
- Verse 2
- I fell in with bad companions
- I robbed a man up in Tennessee
- And I got caught way up in Nashville, uh huh now
- And they locked me up and threw away the key
- CHORUS
- I washed my hands in muddy water
- I washed my hands, but they didnt come clean
- I tried to do like my daddy told me, now
- I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
- Verse 3
- I asked the jailer, said Whens my time up?
- He said Son, you know we wont forget
- And if you try and just keep your hands clean, uh huh
- Why we may just make a good man of you yet
- Verse 4
- But I didnt wait to get my time in
- I broke down, broke out the Nashville jail
- I just crossed Atlanta, Georgia, oh now
- And I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail
- I washed my hands in muddy water
- I washed my hands, but they didnt come clean
- I tried to do like my daddy told me, now
- I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
