Explicit version of "Well Water" lyrics
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
Feel it tricklin' down yo' spine
It's all about the wills and wont's
And the price they'll pay to shine
Now I done came a ways up this long road
Believe me these folks is all cold from the Polo Club to Paul doe
They all know Bubba ya boy who cut her without a rubber
But you couldn't look past my skin
Now it's true I babble on about blotter and tales of beanstalks
But peep it it ain't no secret I'm reachin' beyond that cheap talk
'Cause we fought battles and this water make yo' trunk rattle
So if it's b*** you searchin' fo' I run with poachers who hunt cattle
And it don't matter
Bring that notion to my ocean boy you sunk in a sub
I'm crumblin' buds of homegrown
But f*** it it ain't productive to dwell on somethin' that's lone gone
My dome's blown
With whatever drug you pedalin'
But lately I've been settlin for liquor and herbal treats
I want the money
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
Feel it tricklin' down yo' spine
It's all about the wills and wont's
And the price they'll pay to shine
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
I pray it opens up your eyes
'Cause can't nobody call
So we live for the present time
Next time you in the A-T-L get on 85 South and travel
Sixty miles to Legrange
Then mount your horse and saddle 'cause you in the country now
The birthplace of Bubba 'Kay now leave before the sun is down
It's funny how you look at us as nothin' more than crumbs of dust
That's scattered on your wall when just like y'all in guns we trust
Run with us for bout a week
With this jazzy rural grammar to get them hoes up out they seat
Bouncin' beats all down the street out them Buicks on chrome 'n' blades
And even though it's Christmas day we still eatin' on foamy plates
Ain't nuttin'
I ain't Baby
Them classics all designers
Like today is forever 'cause tomorrow is for the vision
Based on optimism and honestly I can't see it
I'ma crank it up tonight if tomorrow comes so be it
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
Feel it tricklin' down yo' spine
It's all about the wills and wont's
And the price they'll pay to shine
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
I pray it opens up your eyes
'Cause can't nobody call
So we live for the present time
Man I'm feelin' day to day
With an entourage of po' folks
I swear to y'all I won't croak
No confederates in this settlement but trust me the South will rise
It ain't even about the rap s***
All the water in this well's for country folks who never had s***
Did you know they closin' down the only factory in this town?
But still you got the nerve to say it's plenty work to go around
I asked the Lord to hold me down 'til I find me some distribution
He kept me up for seven nights then finally hit me with this solution
As a result of this pollution it seems my water is now valued
At twenty dollars a jug
But in the form of loud tunes to soothe your troubled heart
What many call salvation is really just Bubba Sparxxx
So when I'm easin' up them charts
Pay the price
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
Feel it tricklin' down yo' spine
It's all about the wills and wont's
And the price they'll pay to shine
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
I pray it opens up your eyes
'Cause can't nobody call
So we live for the present time
If you need to bathe
And if you wanna drink
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
Feel it tricklin' down yo' spine
It's all about the wills and wont's
And the price they'll pay to shine
Let that water cleanse yo' mind
I pray it opens up your eyes
'Cause can't nobody call
So we live for the present time
Bubba Sparxxx
