You push me when i'm falling
And then you put me down
I guess i missed my calling
I should have been a clown

How much more
How much more can i stand
You're pouring water
On a drowning man

You put me on the right track
And then you put me down
You stab me in the back
Everytime i turn around

Criticize my lovin'
When i'm doing the very best i can
You're pouring water
On a drowning man
You're pouring water
On a drowning man
You treat me like
The fool that i am
You bet that i like everything you do
Put salt in my wounds
It's sad but it's true

You warm me with your kisses
Then you leave me in the cold
How can i know your wishes
When i've never been told
Won't you please forgive me
Just try and understand
You're pouring water
On a drowning man

You're pouring water
On a drowning man
You treat me like
The fool that i am
You bet that i like everything you do
Put salt in my wounds
It's sad but it's true

You warm me with your kisses
Then you leave me in the cold
How can i know your wishes
When i've never been told
Won't you please forgive me
Just try and understand
You're pouring water
On a poor drowning man

I got tears in my eyes
Oh, i'm a drowning man
I got tears in my eyes
You're pouring water
On a drowing man
You're pouring water
On a poor drowning man
