Swamp Life Blues

[Verse] Mud between my toes and the gators grin wide Cypress trees are whisperin where secrets like to hide Mosquitoes buzzin a song they’ve rehearsed Out here in the swamp it’s a blessing and a curse [Chorus] Swamp life oh it clings to your soul Like the vines on the trees where the dark waters roll It’s a dance with the wild where the stories are untamed Out here in the swamp no two days are the same [Verse 2] Sun sinks low paints the sky blood red Crickets strike a rhythm as the day is put to bed Frogs sing the chorus bass deep and true The swamp keeps its secrets but it shares a few [Bridge] Snakes slither slow like they own the ground Every shadow’s a whisper every echo a sound It’s the hum of the earth it’s the pulse of the air Life in the swamp it’s a love and a dare [Chorus] Swamp life oh it clings to your soul Like the vines on the trees where the dark waters roll It’s a dance with the wild where the stories are untamed Out here in the swamp no two days are the same [Verse 3] Lantern light flickers on the cabin porch The swamp’s a cathedral its sky the torch Weave me a tale with the moss overhead Where the swamp breathes life and the past ain’t dead [delta blues solo]
