Giving Water to a Drowning Man
I appreciate the sweet kind words
Girl, you're lookin good tonight
Had you come around not so long ago
I'm sure we'd have had us a time
But I got someone givin me
More love than I'll ever need
Girl, you got to understand

Chorus 1:
It'd be like giving water to a drowning man
Building a fire on the desert sand
Tellin old Noah all about the flood
Catfish hearin' bout the Mississippi mud
You wanna give me lovin,
And I'm sure that you can
But it's like givin water to a drownin man

Lots of pretty women in this town, but
I don't give a second look
It's just a waste of time
Starin at the cover when you've already read the book
'Cause ever since the day we met
I've been in over my head
No one loves me like she can

Chorus 2:
It'd be like givin water to a drownin man
Tellin Merle Haggard bout a one-night-stand
Cussin at the devil
Preachin at the choir
Throwin a lighted match on a ragin fire
My baby gives me more love than one man can stand
It's like givin water to a drownin man

I got someone givin me
More love than I'll ever need
Girl, you got to understand

Repeat Chorus 1
Repeat Chorus 2
