Lyrics for I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water

Right now, right now, now, baby Right now, right now's the time Right now, right now, darlin' I can change my mind Right now, I'm realin' and rockin' I'm spinnin' just like a queen You'd better have me right now I don't know how I'll feel Right now, right now, right now Right now, right now's the time You right now, right now, darlin' I can change my mind Six month, six month same old sentence Twelve month won't be long time To get what you want to me Have to do I to 99 Right now, right now, right now Right now, right now's the time Right now, right now, baby Don't you know Brownie can change my mind Right now, my card's on the table I maybe playin' a loosin' hand But I'd rather drink muddy water T' see you with another man Right now, right now, right now Right now, darlin', here's the time Right now, right now Baby, I can change my mind Right now, right now, my cup runs over Well, the whole lotta love for you Right now, if I was in your shoes I'd do anything you want me to Right now, right now, now, baby Right now, right now's the time Right now, you'd better have me Cause I can change my mind Right now, let's go out together, right now
