Buddy & Julie Miller Dirty Water
Well I don't need you hangin round my door Trying 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
You've got a lie underneath your tongue where it can't be seen And you wanna put the truth on a guillotine But you might as well put out a fire with gasoline
Well you can serve up dirty water from a golden cup You can try to lock up the truth but the door won't shut Cause the truth just comes out like blood from a cut
Well that is sparkle and shiny but it was just a trick So you wash it down with a kiss just to get a kick Well that dirty water is about to make me sick
Dirty water now what's that for Dirty water I ain't drinkin no more
You can try to sweeten turpentine up with grenadine But I can still read you 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
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 And I ain't gonna drink that dirty water no more
