You're Pouring Water on a Drowning Man |
| You tripped me when I’m falling |
| You kick me when I’m down |
| I think I missed my calling |
| I should have been a clown |
| How much more- |
| How much more can I stand |
| You’re pouring water |
| On a drowning man (I like that) |
| You get me on the right track, baby |
| And then you run me down (Oh, yes, you do) |
| You stab me in the back (Trust, yeah) |
| Everytime I turn around |
| Criticizin' my loving |
| When I’m doing all I can |
| You’re pouring water |
| On a drowning man |
| You’re pouring water on a drowning man |
| You treat me like the fool I am |
| You bragged that I’ll take anything you do |
| Salt in my wound it’s sad but it’s true |
| You warm me with your kissin', baby |
| Then you leave me in the cold (Oh, yes, you do) |
| How can I know your wishes? |
| Yeah, hen I’ve never been told |
| Won’t you show a little mercy |
| Can’t you understand? |
| You’re pouring water |
| On a drowning man |
| You’re pouring water |
| On a drowning man |
| Oh, yeah |
