It was just an ordinary afternoon I was sitting in the park
Trying to forget all of my blues, I wanted a lil' something to spark
And so in God's green earth I did partake an unusual affair
I forgot my woes while I fell awake, I didn't have a single care

Then I noticed something very wrong
I was so parched I could not sing this song

Hey, cottonmouth, cottonmouth, you're so damn rough
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, woah
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, don't know what to do
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, so in love with you

In what was just an ordinary afternoon became complicated
In my intent to drive away my blues I got discombobulated
I tried to get my cloudy head to think, see I needed a solution
But the only water I could find to drink was full of pollution

Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, you're so damn rough
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, woah
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, don't know what to do
Cottonmouth, cottonmouth, so in love with you

I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat

I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat
I need some H2O down my throat
