Well you're right that no one informed ya'
I guess I should have warned ya', it's all a contest
And you said they all wanted to hide ya'
But when they got deep inside ya', it's a big mess

And you know me better now and you see I'm in the middle
And you don't know why or how but you sold me down your river
And I'm just plain old sandwiched in between
So save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream

Well the shouts of a thousand disciples and the brass Winchester rifles, brought the house down
And I know that I don't concern you, but life's got a way it can burn you, ya' lose the high ground

(Chorus)

You're a match that I have burned, you're a page that I have turned, and you know the rest
And I'd never steal your water, it was your whining boss-man's daughter, your half-brother confessed

(Chorus)

Yeah, save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream
