"I lost my heart
under the bridge
to that little girl
so much to me

And now I'm old
and now I holler
she'll never know
just what I found

That blue eyed girl
she said "no more"
that blue eyed girl
became blue eyed whore

Down by the water
i took her hand
just like my daughter
won't see her again

Oh help me jesus
come through this storm
i had to lose her
to do her harm

I heard her holler
i heard her moan
my lovely daughter
i took her home

Little fish. big
fish. Swimming in the
water.

Come back here, man.
gimme my daughter.

Little fish. big
fish. Swimming in the
water.

Come back here, man.
gimme my daughter." (1)
