I was a boy, I was a good little boy, A very good boy when I was ten Well I was quiet as a mouse at my Grandma's house, It was just me and a friend He said take a big drink up above the sink There was a bottle on the very top shelf I took a big chug-a-lug then I hit the rug And he left me there by myself Chorus Whoa my mind's moving kinda slow there must be, Must be something in the water Whoa this thing follows me wherever I go there must be, Must be something in the water I was a boy, I was a very good boy, A very good boy at seventeen I saw a sight under the main street light, She was the cutest thing I ever seen Every time I tried to throw her a line
Well my knees they just got weak And I was pa**ed a cup so I drank it up And I was face down on the street Chorus Whoa this thing follows me wherever I go there Must be must be something in the water Whoa my mind's moving kinda slow there Must be must be something in the water Well I'm older now and I don't know how But ten years they gone and came My wife she left what's left of my life Just a spinnin' down the drain But I still got my buddies and I still got my pals And I still got my buddies and I still got my pals Chorus I said there must be, there must be something in the water
