Verse 1
        E
Well, I stopped in the heart of deep east Texas
       E                      B7
And an old man told me with a wink
          E                       A
That if I ever took a sip of that east Texas water
    B7                       E
I'd come back to get another drink

Chorus 1
N.C.                         B7
Well, he warned me 'bout the water
                        E
But never mentioned his daughter
                        B7
And while that water is fine
            A                        B7      E
It's not as sweet as that east Texas baby of mine

Verse 2
          E
Well, the water in east Texas runs cold and deep
             E                           B7
And when you drink it, you acting like a clown
    E                    A
But East Texas women are warm and sweet
              B7                        E
And they quit running when the sun goes down

Chorus 2
N.C.                          B7
That's why my heart starts to quiver
                  E
Near the Angelina River
                      B7
On that river's white sand
A                              B7          E
That's where a woman makes you feel like a man

Chorus 3
                    B7
And you know what I think?
                        E
I've got to get another drink
                   B7
Of that east Texas water
              A                      B7        E
And while I'm there, I'll marry that old man's daughter

Outro Chorus
                    B7
And you know what I think?
                        E
I've got to get another drink
                      B7
Yeah, you know what I think?
                        E
I've got to get another drink...
