Bilingual
She don't look like her mother
Nothing like her father
How else can you explain it must be something in the water?
Pigtails, overalls, freckles on her face
Skinny as a toothpick turned sideways
Something happened to her when she turned 16
From a little Dixie Chicken to a Mississippi Queen
Spent her days a-fishing with a bamboo cane
Every night skin-dipping in the Pontchartrain'
If you were living breathing, had two feet
You would be stalking that girl 'cause she looked so sweet
You can always find her when the nighttime fell
Drinkin' off a bucket from an old stone well
Drinking from her hand
Dancing to the moon
She don't look like her mother, nothing like her father
How else can you explain it must be something in the water?
I never will forget that look in her eye
The night she took me down to the riverside
She wrapped herself around me like a honeysuckle vine
And let me have a taste of wild cherry wine
You can always find her when the nighttime fell
Drinking of a bucket from an old stone well
Drinking from her hand
Singing to the moon
She don't look like her mother nothing like her father
Folks round here say it's something in the water
ย
Two straight months without any rain
I never ever saw that girl again
But I still got her picture burning in my head
Dancing in a downpour, soaking wet
You can always find when the nighttime fell
Drinking of a bucket of an old stone well
Drinking from her hand, howling at the moon
She don't look like her mother nothing like her father
How else can you explain it must be something in the water?
Don't look like her mother nothing like her father
Folks round here say it something in the water
Something in the water now
Yeah, hey, way down in the water
Something in the water
Something in the water
Way down in the water
There's something in the water
Must be something in the water
