It was down by the water where the angry rivers rise I was found by the preacher's daughter Whose love I can't deny I was still so young when I touched that gun For the first time and it felt so right So I packed my bag and I said goodbye 'Cause I knew that I'd crossed the line So as I turn out the light You'd better not close your eyes I might rip your heart out honey I might steal your money too Black water running through my soul I'll be the ruin of you I smiled like an angel I was a streetwise seventeen She was old enough to know better
When she took her chance on me One respectable wife With a taste for the darker side I might rip your heart out honey I might steal your money too Black water running through my soul I'll be the ruin of you So as I turn out the light You'd better not close your eyes I might rip your heart out honey I might steal your money too Black water running through my soul I might rip your heart out honey I might steal your money too Black water running through my soul I'll be the ruin of you
