| Whoa-whoa-whoa
|
| Whoa-whoa-whoa
|
| Whoa-whoa-whoa
|
| Whoa-whoa-whoa
|
| The whole time had you by my side
|
| Color me blind, nice try
|
| Told every lie to lie the wool on my eyes
|
| Wool on my eyes
|
| My mama didn’t raise no fool, she done told me
|
| Watch out for the likes of you, and you must be
|
| Tripping if you thinking that I’m missing what is hidden
|
| You can’t chew what you bitten
|
| Oh, you can drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Try to drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Put your hands around my neck
|
| Steal my last breath
|
| Drag me through the mud, but
|
| I keep rising up (up, up, up)
|
| I keep rising up (up, up, up)
|
| I keep rising up, up
|
| I keep rising up
|
| If you play me, you reap what you sow
|
| If you digging gold, hell no, you know
|
| My heart and my soul cannot be sold
|
| Cannot be sold
|
| My daddy didn’t raise me shy, he done told me
|
| Call 'em out when shit won’t fly, you won’t find me
|
| Sweating when you’re getting to be begging and I’m telling
|
| I ain’t buying what you selling
|
| Oh, you can drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Try to drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Put your hands around my neck
|
| Steal my last breath
|
| Drag me through the mud, but
|
| I keep rising up
|
| I keep rising up
|
| I float down the river like a bird in a stream
|
| I fly if I want to or lay back and dream
|
| Drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Oh, you can drown me in the devil’s water
|
| Whoa-whoa-oh
|
| Put your hands around my neck
|
| Steal my last breath
|
| Drag me through the mud, but
|
| I keep rising up (up, up, up)
|
| I keep rising up (up, up, up)
|
| I keep rising up, up
|
| Keep rising up |
