Back in the wood where it's good
And the days are yeah long
Well I saw me a child, she was wild
Like a lady going all wrong

Dark as the night, she was right
For a little conversation
So I pulled her right in and she said
She had some imagination

Black swampy water
That's where I caught her
Black swampy water
Black swampy water

We didn't speak, felt weak
Got tangled up in her hair
So we lay in the grass, what a gas
You can't know that you were there

So then I let it all go, what a show
Was like blowing up a freight train
Then around the world I would go
Like jumping on a jet plane

I'm in black swampy water
That's where I caught her
Black swampy water
Ooh, what I taught her
Back in the wood where it's good
And the days are yeah long
Well I saw me a child, she was wild
Like a lady going all wrong

I'm in black swampy water
Oh no, that's where I caught her
Black swampy water
Ooh, all things that I taught her

Yes I'm in black swampy water
My, my, where I saw her
Black swampy water
What I did when I caught her
