Pouring Water
by Doc McKenzie, The Hi-Lites

Album: Live In Concert


You push me when I was falling, Well...
You wouldn't even lend me a helping hand.
You talk about me to your friends,
On the telephone... all over the land. Well...
You though I was down and out, Yes you did...
You wouldn't even help me when I was down.
Instead...
You scandalize my name,
All over the place. Well...

If you aren't willing... to lend me a helping hand,

It just like pouring water
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) On a Drowning man...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) When you talk about me you pouring water...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) On a Drowning man...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

They lead my...

Jesus! (Choir)

Down to the judgement hall.
They tried him and condemn him,
They didn't have no case at all.
The Judge said...

Bring me some water (Choir)

Well...

And let me wash my hands (Choir)

Becuase...
I don't want no parts of (Naw Naw)
Killing this innocent man.
Look at what he said... Well...

If they weren't willing to lend him a helping hand,

It just light pouring water
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) On a Drowning man...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) It just like pouring water...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

(Lead) Pouring water...
(Choir) Pouring water on a drowning man

If you believe in that he said, they said, she said
You aint doing nothing but pouring water.
When I feel like shouting,
You want to sit me down.
Everytime I smile,
Look at your face and you're wearing a frown.
If I want to rise up,
You want let me stand.
There's times when I can't sleep at night,
You want even lend me a helping hand.

That Pouring Water...

Pouring Water...
Pouring Water...

Pouring Water...
Pouring water...
