You're Pouring Water on a Drowning Man

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 Every time 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 drowning man You're pouring water On a poor drowning man
