there's a little darkness
on my horizon
and i'm pushing up the ante that is
getting closer
and pardon my expression
but it's shit like this that sticks
and makes you mix with dirty water
(whistling)
ohhhhh need a little sunshine
sunshine on my skin
oh need a little of your time
give it to me baby
oh when dirty water's all you have to fill your cup
don't drink too much, don't drink too much
oh i was a lady
of easy leisure
and i took pleasure in the birds
that came a'callin at my window
and they told me
a cloud was comin
full of dirty water
and it was gonna rain
Oooh Oooh
La-la-la-la La-la-la-la
Oooh
Oooh
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
