Something In The Water

One day I decided I would go

And wet my line down at the fishing hole

Found you sitting there in a calico dress

On the banks, bare feeting hanging over the edge.

It was July hot, about a hundred and ten

That river looked inviting so we jumped right in

We’d only been friends up until that summer

But that all changed the moment we went under.

Something in the water that we did not see

Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me

Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter

Lord have mercy must be something in the water.

We started smiling then we started laughing

We swam around, kicking and a splashing

Not sure exactly just what it was, but we

Dove in the river and fell in love.

Look at the surface, you don’t see nothing

But underneath, Lord, it’s really something

One little kiss was all it took

Came here to fish and we sure got hooked.

Something in the water that we did not see

Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me

Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter

Lord have mercy must be something in the water.

I believe that I could make a million bucks

If I could only find a way to bottle it up.

Something in the water that we did not see

Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me

Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter

Lord have mercy must be something in the water.

Lord have mercy must be something in the water.
