Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I drank some dirty water, shook evil hands
I've done some bad things, and they get easier to do
And then I wrote a nasty letter, and I sent it to the Lord
I said, "Don't you dare come and bother me no more"
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I had a good friend I could only destroy
And lovers, I loved less than anybody could afford
Yes, but this old rocking horse just nods his head
And he's gonna rock back and forth the way that he always did
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Baby, don't you bother tasting the water
And baby, don't you bother coming closer to me
Yes, when you see my eyes, they're half the size
And I'm not able to look at you, no, no
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
