Lyrics Hank Williams Jr. – If The Good Lord’s Willin’ (And The Creeks Don’t Rise)
Text:
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
I’ll be lookin’ into my baby’s eyes
When the sun comes up in Tennessee
I could tell you right now where I’m gonna be
I’ve been ramblin’ around from place to place
But I done got lonesome for my baby’s face
Tomorrow mornin’ I’ll be in paradise
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
There’s a whole lotta 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 willin’ 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 willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
There’s a whole lotta water between here and there
Man I hope that this weather stays fair
That baby of mine’s gonna get a surprise
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
I’ve got matrimony on my mind
I’m gonna ask that gal, sign on the dotted line
I’ll soon be there the way this Cadillac flies
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
I’m a lovesick man
And these lonesome livin’ alone blues I just can’t stand
I’m gonna be kissin’ my brand new bride
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
Got matrimony on my mind
I mean I’m ready to sign right there on the dotted line
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
That baby of mine gonna get a surprise
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
I’ll be there soon the way this Cadillac flies
If the good Lord’s willin’ and the creeks don’t rise
