"Something In The Water" lyrics

"Something In The Water"

I was a boy, I was a good little boy
A very good boy when I was ten
Well, I was quiet as a mouse at my Grandma's house
It was just me and a friend
He said take a big drink up above the sink
There was a bottle on the very top shelf
I took a big chug-a-lug then I hit the rug
And he left me there by myself

Whoa, my mind's moving kinda slow there must be
Must be something in the water
Whoa, this thing follows me wherever I go there must be
Must be something in the water

I was a boy, I was a very good boy
A very good boy at seventeen
I saw a sight under the main street light
She was the cutest thing I ever seen
Every time I tried to throw her a line
Well, my knees they just got weak
And I was passed a cup so I drank it up
And I was face down on the street

Whoa, this thing follows me wherever I go there
Must be must be something in the water
Whoa, my mind's moving kinda slow there must be
Must be something in the water

Well, I'm older now and I don't know how
But ten years they gone and came
My wife she left what's left of my life
Just a spinnin' down the drain
But I still got my buddies and I still got my pals
And I still got my buddies and I still got my pals

Whoa, my mind's moving kinda slow there must be
Must be something in the water
Whoa, this thing follows me wherever I go there must be
Must be something in the water

I said there must be, there must be something in the water
