[Intro]
Aye, hey, hey
[Chorus]
No more water in the well, no more, no more
Listen to me
[Verse 1]
You take my love for granted like water
Water you spill and you waste
Though love is thicker than water
It spills quicker than water
And you'll look up one of these days
[Chorus]
And there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
There'll be no more water in the wеll, no more (No more)
No more
Listеn to me, darling
[Verse 2]
How much longer do you think my love can last?
Through sorrow, pain and mistrust?
Today my love is strong
But keep doing me wrong
And tomorrow it may turn to dust
[Chorus]
And there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
I said no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
[Bridge]
This is the day you better planned on, baby
You won't have a leg to stand on
'Cause there'll be
No more water
No more water
No more water in the well
Mmm, hey
[Verse 3]
You take advantage of me, 'cause I need you
I can't make you change, though I've tried
One day, it just may be
You're gonna need me
And you'll be the one who's denied
[Chorus]
'Cause there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
Listen to me, no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
[Outro]
No more water (No more water)
No more water (No water)
No more (No more)
No more
Aye, hey, hey
[Chorus]
No more water in the well, no more, no more
Listen to me
[Verse 1]
You take my love for granted like water
Water you spill and you waste
Though love is thicker than water
It spills quicker than water
And you'll look up one of these days
[Chorus]
And there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
There'll be no more water in the wеll, no more (No more)
No more
Listеn to me, darling
[Verse 2]
How much longer do you think my love can last?
Through sorrow, pain and mistrust?
Today my love is strong
But keep doing me wrong
And tomorrow it may turn to dust
[Chorus]
And there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
I said no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
[Bridge]
This is the day you better planned on, baby
You won't have a leg to stand on
'Cause there'll be
No more water
No more water
No more water in the well
Mmm, hey
[Verse 3]
You take advantage of me, 'cause I need you
I can't make you change, though I've tried
One day, it just may be
You're gonna need me
And you'll be the one who's denied
[Chorus]
'Cause there'll be no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
Listen to me, no more water in the well, no more (No more)
No more
[Outro]
No more water (No more water)
No more water (No water)
No more (No more)
No more
