Drink the Water Lyrics
Little wicked boy, come out and shake my hand

I come from where you come from
, I’ve seen what you’ve seen

Come lay under my wing, fade into the night

I love you, I can save you if you believe

Drink the water from the mud little boy
Drink the water from the mud

Tell me that you don’t belong little boy

Tell me that you don’t belong
Little impish one, remember what we planned
We won’t hear whistles calling when we are out to sea
Come lay under my wing, morning’s over the shore

I love you, I can teach you if you believe
Drink the water from the mud little boy 

Drink the water from the mud

Tell me that you don’t belong little boy

Tell me that you don’t belong

I come from where you come from
, I’ve seen what you’ve seen

Come lay under my wing, fade into the night

I love you, I can save you if you believe

Drink the water from the mud

Tell me that you don’t belong little boy

Tell me that you don’t belong
We won’t hear whistles calling when we are out to sea
Come lay under my wing, morning’s over the shore

I love you, I can teach you if you believe
Drink the water from the mud

Tell me that you don’t belong little boy

Tell me that you don’t belong

I see this as a song about a guardian angel guiding a child. Hence, "Come lay under my wing"- in good conscience, follow me and you will be happy and safe.
