Songtexte You're Pouring Water on a Drowning Man - Percy Sledge
You tripped me when I'm falling
You kick me when I'm down
I think I miss my calling
I should have been a clown
How much more can I stand?
You're pouring water on a drowning man
You get me on the right track, baby
And then you run me down, oh, yes, you do
You stab me in the back, trust yeah
Every time I turn around
Criticizin' my loving when I'm doing all I can
You're pouring water on a drowning man
You're pouring water on a drowning man
When you treat me like the fool I am
You bragged that I'll take anything you do
Salt in my wound, this lie and this truth
You warm me with your kisses, baby
Then you leave me in the cold, oh-yes, you do
How can I know your wishes? Yeah
When I've never been told
Won't you show a little mercy?
Can't you understand?
You're pouring water on a drowning man
You're pouring water on a drowning man
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-yeah
