Nils Lofgren - Mud in Your Eye

You used to leave your scent
On his whiskey soaked collar
You both would paint the town
Drink up his very last dollar
And then you loved him for fun
And rode away when it was done
Now he's confused and I know why
Ain't that mud in your eye

Ain't like rain
Remember lively little Richard.
But his men were painting town
You were in need of attention
So he thought he'd take you on down
And there you first saw me
And realized you were no longer free
Cuz true love good girls can't deny
It comes and goes like mud in you're eye.

Sometimes a victim can run

But not when both have been 'von

And I ain't no stranger
I built you up to shoot you down

Once you could thrill me

Now I'm the jury

And you'll be a cinch to convict

Your boy's gonna make the great escape

While your laid bare on the ground

This vengeance had to and in crime

I built you up and shoot you down

You know I'm not usually that kind

But you didn't know he was a brother of mine

But I'll just laugh if you cry

Now ain't that mud in your eye
