Dirty Water |
| Well I don’t need you hangin' round my door |
| Tryin' to drag me back down to the shore |
| And I ain’t gonna drink your dirty water no more |
| Well I got wet from my head down to my legs |
| And I drank dirty water down to the dregs |
| But I won’t do it again I don’t care who begs |
| Dirty water — now what’s that for |
| Dirty water — I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| You got a lie underneath your tongue where it |
| Can’t be seen |
| And you want to put the truth on guillotine |
| But you might as well put out a fire with gasoline |
| Well you can serve dirty water from a golden cup |
| You can try to lock up the truth but the door won’t shut |
| 'Cause the truth just keeps comin' out like blood from a cut |
| Dirty water — now what’s that for |
| Dirty water — I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| You can try to sweeten dirty water up with grenadine |
| But I can still read you just like a magazine |
| And I ain’t gonna drink no more till the water runs clean |
| Dirty water — now what’s that for |
| Dirty water — I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| I ain’t drinkin' no more |
| Baby you got the kind of love that I can’t afford |
| And I don’t have a taste for what’s in that glass you poured |
| Now I ain’t gonna drink that dirty water no more |
