Nils Lofgren - Mud In Your Eye Lyrics

You used to leave your scent on his whisky soaked collar
You both would paint the town, drink up his very last dollar
Then you loved him for fun and rode away when it was done
Now he's confused and I know why
Man, wipe that mud from your eye
It ain't like rain

Remember lively Little Richard
When his band was playing in 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
'Cause true love good girls can't deny
It comes and goes like mud in your eye

Sometimes a victim can run
But not when both have been won
And I ain't no stranger
Once you could thrill me
Now I'm the jury
And you'll be a cinch to convict

Your boy's gonna make that great escape
While you're laid bare on the ground
This vengeance had to end in crime
I built you up to shoot you down

You know I'm usually not that kind
But you didn't know he was a brother of mine
I'll just laugh if you cry
Now ain't that mud in your eye
I'll just laugh if you cry
Now ain't that mud in your eye
