Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rain taps on the tin roof
Puppy paws on the floor
You laugh when he chases
My old pick by the door
Wet socks on the welcome mat
Mud on the backyard swing
I tune up three loose strings
And you start to sing
[Pre-Chorus]
Little hands, little paws
Little mess, big grin
Grey sky hanging low
But we let it in
[Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
[Verse 2]
You pass me the blue capo
I pass you the smile
The puppy curls by your knees
Then bolts after a pile
Back porch full of puddles
Back porch full of sound
Every wet little moment
Keeps pulling me down
[Pre-Chorus]
Little hands, little paws
Little mess, big grin
Grey sky hanging low
But we let it in
[Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
[Bridge]
Let the rain wear us out
Let the day go slow
One bark, one chord
And the whole house glows
[Final Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
Rain taps on the tin roof
Puppy paws on the floor
You laugh when he chases
My old pick by the door
Wet socks on the welcome mat
Mud on the backyard swing
I tune up three loose strings
And you start to sing
[Pre-Chorus]
Little hands, little paws
Little mess, big grin
Grey sky hanging low
But we let it in
[Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
[Verse 2]
You pass me the blue capo
I pass you the smile
The puppy curls by your knees
Then bolts after a pile
Back porch full of puddles
Back porch full of sound
Every wet little moment
Keeps pulling me down
[Pre-Chorus]
Little hands, little paws
Little mess, big grin
Grey sky hanging low
But we let it in
[Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
[Bridge]
Let the rain wear us out
Let the day go slow
One bark, one chord
And the whole house glows
[Final Chorus]
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We don't mind at all
Muddy paws, muddy paws
Hear that guitar call
Oh-oh, stay right here
Oh-oh, let it pour
Muddy paws, muddy paws
We want one hour more
Style of Music
Indie-pop folk with a lilting mid-tempo swing, brushed kick and acoustic strum as the foundation; verse stays intimate with fingerpicked guitar and soft bass, pre-chorus opens with handclaps and rising harmonies, chorus blooms into stacked vocals and a hummed chant. Add vinyl crackle, rain-window ambience, and a little glockenspiel sparkle between phrases. Bright, cozy, close-mic mix with warm room air.
