I snatched you away from the jaws of the world
But I drank up her oceans and dried up her pearls
I acted reprehensibly
I acted like she was sent here for me
Gold in the water and under the water
The richer man gave his lovely daughter
For lack of decency
She robbed a thief like me
I would saw off my limbs for a little bit more
I would trust you, but trust is such a dirty word
I would saw off my limbs for a little bit more
Oh, I loved you, but love is like a dirty whore
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
Well I snatched her away from the jaws of the world
But I drank up her diamonds and I dried up her pearls
As I acted reprehensibly
I acted like she was made for me
And now into the water and under the water
I'm baptized with the neighbor's daughter
For a life of decency
She saved a wretch like me
I would saw off my limbs for a little bit more
I would trust you, but trust is such a dirty word
I would saw off my limbs for a little bit more
Oh, I loved you, but love is like a dirty whore
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
Ahh-ooh
