Don't go near the water
The water there's gone bad
Don't go near the water
I think that it killed my dad

Saw a raccoon lyin'
Near the waterhole
Dad must've known better right away
That's no place for a man to go

Don't go near the water
Ain't it sad
What's happened to the water
It's goin' bad

Don't go near the water
Don't go near the water
(Hey-hey-hey)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm dirty water)
(Ah uhm...)
(Ah uhm...)

Don't go near the water
To do it any wrong
To be cool with the water is
The message of this song

Let's all help the water
Right away
Do what we can in order
Let's start today
