I met a girl drinking medicine water
She took my hand
Showed me the way
I drank all my fill of that medicine water
And I can't remember her name
Sleeping in the deep
On that medicine water
Worries, and doubts they all float away
Ten years went by, and I'm still in that water
And I can't remember her name
Come one beside me
Here sit for a spell
Drink what you will from the water
Wasting away on that medicine water
I can't remember my name
Wasted again on that medicine water
Dead in a ditch, cold as the clay
A pox on that girl, and the medicine water
But I can't remember her name
Come one beside me
Here sit for a spell
Drink what you will from the water
Wasting away on that medicine water
I can't remember my name
