One day I decided I would go|And wet my line down at the fishing hole|Found you sitting there in a calico dress|On the banks, bare feet hanging over the edge.||It was July hot, about a hundred and ten|That river looked inviting so we jumped right in|We'd only been friends up until that summer|But that all changed the moment we went under.||Something in the water that we did not see|Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me|Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter|Lord have mercy must be something in the water.||We started smiling then we started laughing|We swam around, kicking and a splashing|Not sure exactly just what it was, but we|Dove in the river and fell in love.||Look at the surface, you don't see nothing|But underneath, Lord, it's really something|One little kiss was all it took|Came here to fish and we sure got hooked.||Something in the water that we did not see|Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me|Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter|Lord have mercy must be something in the water.||I believe that I could make a million bucks|If I could only find a way to bottle it up.||Something in the water that we did not see|Reached up and grabbed a hold of you and me|Jumped in to cool off but we came out hotter|Lord have mercy must be something in the water.|Lord have mercy must be something in the water.|
