Artist/Band: John Mayall
Lyrics for Song: Dirty Water
Lyrics for Album: Stories [2009]



Well I don't need you hangin' round my door

Tryin' to drag me back down to the shore

And I ain't gonna drink your dirty water no more

Well I got wet from my head down to my legs

And I drank dirty water down to the dregs

But I won't do it again I don't care who begs



Dirty water - now what's that for

Dirty water - I ain't drinkin' no more

I ain't drinkin' no more



You got a lie underneath your tongue where it

can't be seen

And you want to put the truth on guillotine

But you might as well put out a fire with gasoline

Well you can serve dirty water from a golden cup



You can try to lock up the truth but the door won't shut

'Cause the truth just keeps comin' out like blood from a cut



Chorus



You can try to sweeten dirty water up with grenadine

But I can still read you just like a magazine

And I ain't gonna drink no more till the water runs clean



Chorus



Baby you got the kind of love that I can't afford

And I don't have a taste for what's in that glass you poured

Now I ain't gonna drink that dirty water no more
