"Devil's Water" lyrics

Whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa

The whole time had you by my side
Color me blind, nice try
Told every lie to lie the wool on my eyes
Wool on my eyes
My mama didn't raise no fool, she done told me
Watch out for the likes of you, and you must be
Tripping if you thinking that I'm missing what is hidden
You can't chew what you bitten

Oh, you can drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Try to drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Put your hands around my neck
Steal my last breath
Drag me through the mud, but

I keep rising up (up, up, up)
I keep rising up (up, up, up)
I keep rising up, up
I keep rising up

If you play me, you reap what you sow
If you digging gold, hell no, you know
My heart and my soul cannot be sold
Cannot be sold
My daddy didn't raise me shy, he done told me
Call 'em out when shit won't fly, you won't find me
Sweating when you're getting to be begging and I'm telling
I ain't buying what you selling

Oh, you can drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Try to drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Put your hands around my neck
Steal my last breath
Drag me through the mud, but

I keep rising up
I keep rising up

I float down the river like a bird in a stream
I fly if I want to or lay back and dream

Drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh

Oh, you can drown me in the devil's water
Whoa-whoa-oh
Put your hands around my neck
Steal my last breath
Drag me through the mud, but

I keep rising up (up, up, up)
I keep rising up (up, up, up)
I keep rising up, up
Keep rising up
