Steve Wiggins - I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water lyrics

I was born in Macon, Georgia, met my dad in a Macon jail
He said, "Son, if you keep your hands clean
You won't have them bloodhounds on your trail"

I fell in with bad companions, robbed a man in Tennessee
Sheriff caught me way up in Nashville
And they locked me up and they threw away the key

Refrain:
I washed my hands in muddy water
I washed my hands but they didn't come clean
Tried to do what my daddy told meSteve Wiggins - I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water - http://motolyrics.com/steve-wiggins/i-washed-my-hands-in-muddy-water-lyrics.html
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

I asked the jailer when my time's up, he said, "Son, we won't forget
If you try to keep your hands clean
We may make a good man of you yet."

I couldn't wait to do my sentence, I broke out of the Nashville jail
I just crossed the line of Georgia
And I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail
