"You Don't Miss Your Water" lyrics
You know, in the beginning baby
I knew you really loved me
But you see I was the kind of cat
I was too blind, to really dig what was happenin'
I could not see it, you understand
I was a fool that's what was happenin'
But let me tell you something
Now that you've left me
You have no idea how I cry
You see 'cause I've found out one thing baby
I'm gonna tell you exactly what it is
You don't miss your water
Till the well runs dry
You know I kept you crying, oh yes I did (crying)
And I kept you sad and blue
Every time you'd turn around, I was doing something wrong
I was a playboy baby (Oh yeah)
You know and I just didn't know how
I didn't know how to be true
But let me tell you
When you left me baby (When you left, when you left, when you left)
And when you said goodbye (Bye bye)
That's when I found out
You don't miss your water (You don't miss your water)
Till the well runs dry
Baby, baby
Listen to me baby
Now you don't know how much I need you mama sigh mama
That's why I'm down here on my knees calling to you baby
Whoa
Whoa oh oh I need you right here with me
Each and every day to hold my hand
And walk along with me all the way
But let me tell you one thing baby
If you don't come back to me girl
I know that I won't be able to go on
Because I miss my water
I miss my water baby
'Cause my well, my well, my well is run dry
Yeah hey
Yeah hey hey hey
I sit, I sit, and I wonder
How can this be? (How can it be?)
You know, I never thought
I never had any idea
You would ever leave me
But let me tell you one thing
Now that you leave me, whoa ho
Whoa ho ho, I cry
You see I found out, you miss your water (You don't miss your water)
I found out that when your well runs dry
Everything, everything goes wrong for you
I said now you don't, you don't
You don't, miss your water till the well runs dry
Oh Lord yeah
I knew you really loved me
But you see I was the kind of cat
I was too blind, to really dig what was happenin'
I could not see it, you understand
I was a fool that's what was happenin'
But let me tell you something
Now that you've left me
You have no idea how I cry
You see 'cause I've found out one thing baby
I'm gonna tell you exactly what it is
You don't miss your water
Till the well runs dry
You know I kept you crying, oh yes I did (crying)
And I kept you sad and blue
Every time you'd turn around, I was doing something wrong
I was a playboy baby (Oh yeah)
You know and I just didn't know how
I didn't know how to be true
But let me tell you
When you left me baby (When you left, when you left, when you left)
And when you said goodbye (Bye bye)
That's when I found out
You don't miss your water (You don't miss your water)
Till the well runs dry
Baby, baby
Listen to me baby
Now you don't know how much I need you mama sigh mama
That's why I'm down here on my knees calling to you baby
Whoa
Whoa oh oh I need you right here with me
Each and every day to hold my hand
And walk along with me all the way
But let me tell you one thing baby
If you don't come back to me girl
I know that I won't be able to go on
Because I miss my water
I miss my water baby
'Cause my well, my well, my well is run dry

You don't, miss your water till the well runs dry
Oh Lord yeah
