From the f ountains in the mountains

comes the w ater running cool and clear and b lue.

And it c omes down from the hills

and it g oes down to the towns and passes t hrough.

When it g ets down to the cities

then the water turns into a dirty g ray.

It's p oisoned and polluted

by the p eople as it goes along its w ay.

D on't go near the water children

see the fish all dead upon the s hore.

D on't go near the water

cause the w ater isn't w ater any-m ore.

I took my boy fishin' to my old favorite fishin' hole.

I had caught many a fish out of that deep clear water

From the time I was a boy like him.

I said: "I think I got a nibble son."

"Me too" he said.

Then he said: "Daddy if we catch a fish can we eat it?"

I said: "Well there was a time son.

This water's bad now and I might not be safe to eat the fish but there was a time."

There w as a time the air was clean

and y ou could see forever cross the p lains.

The w ind was sweet as honey

and no o ne had ever heard of acid r ain.

We're t orturin' the earth

and pourin' every kind of evil in the s ea.

We v iolated nature

and our c hildren have to pay the penal-t y.

D on't go near the water children

see the fish all dead upon the s hore.

D on't go near the water

cause the w ater isn't w ater any-m ore.

D on't go near the water children

see the fish all dead upon the s hore.

D on't go near the water

cause the w ater isn't w ater any-m ore.
