You Left The Water Running

Otis Redding

1, 2, 3, play



You left on the water running

When you left me behind, baby now

You left all the water running

It's running from these eyes of mine



Baby now that

You turned out the light of love

You left with another guy, honey that me

You turned off all your love for me

But you forgot to turn off the cry

Ooh, forgot to turn off the cry



Baby now that

You pull the shades way down low

And disconnect the telephone

But baby these tears are running from my eyes

I can't turn 'em off and on



Now baby now that

You left on the water running

When you left me behind, let me tell you

That you left all that water running

It's running from these eyes of mine



And now you go

You locked the door

And then you throw the key away, baby now that

You'll regret, baby, you'll be upset, now

When you get your water bill to pay, ooh

When you get that water bill to pay



Honey now that

You left all the water running

When you left me behind, let me tell you

That you left, ooh, the water running

It's running from these eyes of mine



Baby now that

You left, ooh, the water running

Running from these eyes of mine, baby now that

You left all the water running

When you left me behind...
