If The Good Lord's Willin' (And The Creeks Don't Rise)

If the good Lord’s willing and the creeks don’t rise
I’ll be looking into my baby’s eyes
When the sun comes up in Tennessee
I could tell you right now where I’m going to be
I’ve been rambling around from place to place
But I done got lonesome for my baby’s face
Tomorrow morning I’ll be in paradise
If the good Lord’s willing and the creeks don’t rise
There’s a whole lot of water between here and there
And I sure hope that the weather stays fair
That baby of mine is in for quite a surprise
If the good Lord’s willing and the creeks don’t rise
I’ve got matrimony on my mind
I’m ready to sign on that dotted line
Well I’ll soon be there the way this Cadillac flies
If the good Lord’s willing and the creeks don’t rise
I’m a lovesick man
And these lonesome living alone blues I just can’t stand
I’m going to be kissing my brand new bride
If the good Lord’s willing and the creeks don’t rise
