  25 <pre>Half a mile from the county fair
  26 And the rain keep pourin' down
  27 Me and Billy standin' there
  28 With a silver half a crown
  29 Hands are full of a fishin' rod
  30 And the tackle on our backs
  31 We just stood there gettin' wet
  32 With our backs against the fence
  33
  34 Oh, the water
  35 Oh, the water
  36 Oh, the water
  37 Hope it don't rain all day
  38
  39 Chorus:
  40 And it stoned me to my soul
  41 Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
  42 And it stoned me
  43 And it stoned me to my soul
  44 Stoned me just like goin' home
  45 And it stoned me
  46
  47 Then the rain let up and the sun came up
  48 And we were gettin' dry
  49 Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by
  50 So we jumped right in and the driver grinned
  51 And he dropped us up the road
  52 We looked at the swim and we jumped right in
  53 Not to mention fishing poles
  54
  55 Oh, the water
  56 Oh, the water
  57 Oh, the water
  58 Let it run all over me
  59
  60 Chorus
  61
  62 On the way back home we sang a song
  63 But our throats were getting dry
  64 Then we saw the man from across the road
  65 With the sunshine in his eyes
  66 Well he lived all alone in his own little home
  67 With a great big gallon jar
  68 There were bottles too, one for me and you
  69 And he said Hey! There you are
  70
  71 Oh, the water
  72 Oh, the water
  73 Oh, the water
  74 Get it myself from the mountain stream
  75
  76 Chorus</pre>
