If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays down I'll be in your arms time the moon comes around For a taste of love that's shinin' in your eyes If the rooster crows at the crackin' of the dawn I'll be there just as sure as you're born If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise I'll comb my hair down brush my teeth Shine up slick up dress up neat Get ev'rything a lookin' just right Cause I wanna look pretty when I see you tonight Just as sure as the rabbits are a jumpin' in the hollow I'll be there you can bet your bottom dollar If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise If the good Lord's willin' and the creek stays low I'll be there a knockin' at your door With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize I'll wear my suit my Sunday best I'll be there a lookin' my best If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise I'll feed the mules and slop the hogs Feed the cows and chop all the logs Get all of my workin' done Cause tonight we're gonna havea a lots of fun Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man I'll be there with a ring for your hand If the good Lord's willin' and the creek don't rise.
