[Verse 1] Hey, did you hear about the one that got away, they say he looked left She turned right-meant to be together but not that night It's when fates running late, we tend to make mistakes We go round and round from love to love It's either way too much or not enough Gimme lazy days with nothing better to do Than singing oh black water keep on rolling while I wait for you [Chorus] I don't care if it rains, I'll be just fine I'm leaving the ghosts behind until I got you I got you You're the sun through my window, warming my skin Oh you I got you [Verse 2] Hey then when one of them was taken, the other one was waiting For the next big thing To bring them to the gates of heaven or maybe just late night in Vegas It's true that's what we do when were going down swinging Then coming up singing the blues Wearing out my shoes-chasing new faces to get to you- Driving home on a summer night Singing old black water keep on rolling- till the time is right [Chorus] I don't care if it rains, I'll be just fine sit back enjoy the ride Until I got you I got you you're the sun through my window Warming my skin, oh you I got you Like Sonny and Cher
Except I'll be there for you , I got you [Verse 3] Let old black water bring us together Old black water keep on rolling Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me Old black water keep on rolling Mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me Want to hear some funky Dixieland Pretty Mama come on take me by the hand Want to hear some funky Dixieland Pretty Mama Here she comes, I got you I got you [Chorus] You're the sun through my window warming my skin oh you I got you like Sonny and Cher you know I'll be there for you I got you let old black water bring us together You, I got you, I got you , I got you baby [Outro] By the hand hand take me by the hand Pretty mama dance with your daddy all night long wanna hear some Funky Dixieland pretty mama come and take me by the hand Take me by the hand Pretty mama Want to hear some funky Dixieland Pretty Mama come on take me by the hand Hip, hip, take me by the hip Pretty mama Dance with your daddy all night long Want to hear some funky Dixieland Pretty Mama come on take me by the hand
