"Blood On The Mind" lyrics

I'm telling you to explain
'Cause now you're playing my game
If you don't do what I say
I'm gonna throw you
In the river, someday

See me floating down the river
That's where my body does lie
It sure was a cold September
With blood on everybody's mind

See my body on the shoreline
My thoughts are spilling in the stream
Picking strings all together
But everybody knows their scene

What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night

Can you see it in the stars now
That you ain't acting right
Your minds been poisoned by the weather
The people and all of those lies

Don't listen to the wind blow
'Cause it ain't being very kind
Follow the path of all the others
So they can have their justice tonight

What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night

What did they put in the water that night
'Cause he's lying here dead on cold ice
It don't matter what he had to say
Because they already cut him down today
It don't matter what he had to say
Because they already cut him down today

What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night

What did they put in the water
That we're drinking every night
What did they do to the music man
When they tried to silence him that night
When they tried to silence him that night
