Lyrics
Dirty Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm the lady who locks the door
I'm the lady who turns out the light
Hey, you
Look at the dirty water
Look at him
Look at the dirty water
And swim
I'm not looking for anything
And you don't know
I'm not digging for anything
But this hole
Hey, you
Look at the dirty water
Look at him
Look at the dirty water
And swim
Sit at your hole
You can't afford to go
Catch what you can
You can't afford to know
This man
Hey, you
Aren't you the lady?
Some man
You look fine
Don't touch me
There's history on your hands
Hey, you
Aren't I the lady?
