Well, I don't need you hangin' round my door Trying 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've got a lie underneath your tongue, where it can't be seen And you wanna put the truth on a guillotine But you might as well put out a fire with gasoline Well, you can serve dirty water up, from a golden cup You can try to lock up the truth, but the door won't shut 'Cause the truth just comes out, like blood from a cut Dirty water, now what's that for Dirty water, I ain't drinkin' no more I ain't drinkin no more You can try to sweeten dirty water up a grenadine But I can still read you just like a magazine And I ain't gonna drink no more, 'till the water runs clean Dirty water, now what's that for Dirty water, I ain't drinkin' no more I ain't drinkin no more 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 And I ain't gonna drink that dirty water no more Dirty water, now what's that for Dirty water, I ain't drinkin' no more I ain't drinkin no more Ain't drinkin' no more
