about

Written in the Buick on the way to a show in the long-standing Hippie community in Deadwood Oregon, alongside a frothing river during primary election season. Get it?

lyrics

Riding in the Buick on Highway 36
Going over 40, taking a big risk
It runs along the river, rising with the storm
Whitecaps a-dancing, brown water warns.
Muddy water rising, trouble coming through.
Hard to see clearly through the muddy brew.
I think I know bullshit, I can see it left or right
But not so good in this brown flood,
Muddy water rising tonight.
Playing out in Deadwood, real Hippies all around
dancing their hearts out, dance and sing along.
They live on the river, they’ve seen mud before
Sinks to the bottom – that’s what mud is for.
Muddy water rising, trouble coming through.
Hard to see the truth now, through the muddy brew.
I think I know bullshit, I can see it left or right
But not so good in this brown flood,
Muddy water rising tonight.
Count on you, what to do
You can go insane, or you can use your brain,
Maybe you can stop the rain…
Riding in the Buick on Highway 36,
Going over 40, taking a big risk – Zane: SLOW DOWN!
He lives on the river, he’s seen curves before
Hands on the wheel, pedal on the floor.
Muddy water rising, trouble coming through.
Hard to see the truth now, through that muddy brew.
Folks of good intention shining out their light
Hard for us to see them in this
Muddy water rising tonight.
Muddy water rising, trouble coming through.
Hard to see the truth now, through the muddy brew.
I think I know bullshit, I think you do, too
But not so good in this brown flood,
Muddy water rising, muddy water rising, muddy water rising tonight.
