I bought my girl a diamond, it was our engagement ring
She took it to a pawn shop, like it didn't mean a thing
She went right out and bought herself
A brand new party dress
She'll be looking good tonight
When we go out I guess

She's a cool drink of water
She's done hocked the ring I bought her
She might be the devil's daughter
But she's a cool, cool drink of water

I took her to a night club, where we used to go a lot
The beer is cold and frosty and the band is blazing hot
I went back for a refill
And this guy walked up and said
There's a blonde out on the dance floor
Turning everybody's head

She's a cool drink of water
And I should run, yes, I probably oughta
She might be the devil's daughter
But she's a cool, cool drink of water

Well I'd had on too many, so she took my keys to drive
She said we'll have more fun tonight if we get home alive
Well, that copper clocked her doing ninety in a twenty zone
But she didn't get a ticket
Just the number to his phone

She's a cool drink of water
And that ol' cop really thinks he caught her
He just met the devil's daughter
She's a cool, cool drink of water

She's a cool drink of water
And I should run, yes, I probably oughta
She might be the devil's daughter
But she's a cool, cool drink of water
