Half a mile from the county fair and the rain keep pourin' down
Me and Billy standin' there with a silver half a crown
Hands are full of a fishin' rod and the tackle on our backs
We just stood there gettin' wet with our backs against the fence
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Hope it don't rain all day
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
