šµ Verse 1 I can dance on water, not get wet But I fall for a woman, and I still regret She smiled so sweet, then took my bed Left me talkinā to the wall instead š¶ Chorus Oh Lord, these women, they twist my mind They sweet-talk you cruel, then leave you blind I light my smoke, try to forget I can dance on waterā¦ but I still get wet šµ Verse 2 She said, āYouāre the one,ā then changed her tune Ran off with a man in a new saloon I stacked my wood, I hauled her stone She took my heart and left me alone šµ Verse 3 She liked my rhymes, said I had soul Till she found a banker with a bankroll Now Iām back here, singinā my song With a busted pride and a list of wrongs šµ Bridge (Spoken, over slide guitar) Now donāt get me wrongāI love āem still But theyāll break your heart and send the bill Theyāll kiss your cheek, then steal your coat Leave you floatinā like a leaky boat š¶ Final Chorus (Slow & Sly) Oh Lord, these women, they twist my mind They dance through fire and leave you behind I light my smoke, try to forget I can dance on waterā¦ but I still get wet
