Mudcrutch - Save Your Water Lyrics






Well you're right that no one informed you
I guess I should have warned you, it's all a contest
And you said they all wanted to hide you
But when they got deep inside you, it's a big mess

And you know me better now and you see I'm in the middle
And you don't know why or how but you sold me down your river
And I'm just plain ol' sandwiched in-between
So save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream

Well the shouts of a thousand disciples and the brass Winchester rifles brought the house down
And I know that I don't concern you, but life's got a way it can burn you, you lose the high ground

And you know me better now and you see I'm in the middle
And you don't know why or how but you sold me down your river
And I'm just plain ol' sandwiched in-between
So save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream

You're a match that I have burned, you're a page that I have turned, and you know the rest
You know I'd never steal your water, it was your whining boss-man's daughter, your half-brother confessed

And you know me better now and you see I'm in the middle
And you don't know why or how but you sold me down your river
And I'm just plain ol' sandwiched in-between
So save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream
Yeah, save your water woman I won't drink out of your stream

    One of my favourites from Mudcrutch. Tom said it was one of the first songs he ever wrote back in Gainesville. So he was writing catchy songs right from the get go.

  6. K.... K....

  10. J.... L....

    I saw Mudcrutch @ the Ogden in Denver. Incredible show!! So much love in the room!

  11. T.... L....

    I paid for the album, and just saw them tonight in Austin. May they live for a thousands years and ever live in the shade. They are some of the last legendary poets of our day.

  12. J.... B....

    Tom Petty is  an incredible singer/ song writer. This song amazes me every time I hear it.

  13. C.... D....

    il est vraiment excellent! !!!!!
    j'aime beaucoup Tom Petty

  14. H.... G....

    Amacing one

  15. E.... t....

    This is one of Green Day's, and Disturbed's channels that they feature...WHY!!!!!!!!!

  16. A.... M....

    And I love the fact that if you bought tickets to the show you got a CD and a poster included in the very reasonable price. I love the Fillmore ... won't go to any big venues anymore. Looking forward to catching Wilco there in September

  17. A.... M....

    At the Fillmore TP said that this was t one of the first songs he ever wrote ... guess he always had it! :)

  18. l.... ....

    who's from France in here?

  19. B.... H....

    there is a glitch in my version around 52 seconds.. anyone else get this?

  20. G.... S....

    a local deejay we call The Gardener in Fresno, on KFSR FM, turned us onto Mudcrutch.great stuff.

  21. M.... H....

    Solidmike225 Tube

  22. A.... A....

    didn't know that they' D put out a second record are there more always loved Tom Petty music

    A.... A....

    I'm just finding out about it now too. I listened to the first one incessantly to mixed drinks on the weekend. I think that was 2012....good year.

  23. l.... ....

    Cool Tune.

  24. b.... j....

    This is my personal favorite from this album. This is great, probably the best new release out currently but I don't think it's as good as the first Mudcrutch album. But that's just my opinion.

    b.... j....

    I'd have to agree, the first album was complete gold all the way through, I'll grade this at Silver, right behind the debut!

  25. E.... S....

    Sounds a little like 'Wasn't Born to Follow' by the Byrds. Good little song to listen to

  26. C.... M....

    Claire Fielden

  27. R.... B....

    Byrds 2.0..love it

  28. B.... V....

    Very "byrdsie" ☺

  29. N.... C....

    Great song!! Mudcrutch is playing in Philly June 7th at the Fillmore.  Going to try and get leave to see them; however, 18 days is kinda short notice for the ARMY...

  30. S.... R....

    Love this! Aww, still got a week or two to go before I get the new Mudcrutch album (in the UK, due 1st June), but this has kept me going, thank-you so much! :) x x

    S.... R....

    It's already on sale! went on sale last week. Hit 39 innthe UK charts. HMV have copies but the supermarkets don't as they are useless

    S.... R....

    Thanks, Neil.  Had mine on pre-order for ages, and have finally got them now, both CD and vinyl copies.  The artwork is gorgeous!  I'm going to frame the one in the LP :)

  31. J.... M....

    Yet another good Mudcrutch song. Their lack of tour dates/locations is so frustrating :(

    J.... M....

    +Jimi M Here you go!http://www.livenation.com/artists/157380/mudcrutch

    J.... M....

    +Nathan C I already knew about the tour. I just meant there are a lack of places that they're playing, only a handful of states. Just wish they would do an all-out, extensive tour for once.

  32. G.... G....

    This is fantastic! Absolutely love it! I like it so much better than the recent TPATH stuff. Not saying that stuff is bad or anything, just that this is even better! Can't wait for the rest!

  33. M.... ....

    los cuatro temas que ya sacaron a la luz excelentes, como no podia ser de otra manera, saludos desde Entre Rios Argentina

    M.... ....

    +MrCastil Está para escuchar el disco entero en una página, fijate... Se viene un discazo!!

    M.... ....

    +aedrianum gracias. buscando....

  34. W.... O....

    Love the bright clean sounds and harmony vocals here

  35. M.... P....

    TP is a miracle! Hi to him from Gainesville here.

    M.... P....

    Was born in Alachua General myself. I know how it feels for Tom to be talking about us...so much of his work is...about us.

    M.... P....

    So cool!  I hated when they knocked down AGH!  Long ago, I dated nurse from there.  Anyhow, I am a music freak and having TP and so many guys from here is awesome!  I know it is for you too!  Thanks for writing.  Really appreciate it.

    M.... P....

    Math Person it's good! !lol you know him?

    M.... P....

    Met him here in town at a local rock joint. He was visiting from LA.
    The rock joint is a good one where Mudcrutch played before they left for
    LA................

  36. F.... L....
