Gina's Waters: A Tale of Love, Loss, and Redemption
Lyrics
Gina's down by the water
Gina is near the water.
The water's up around Gina
The water level has risen around Gina.
All last night I was crying
The speaker spent the previous night crying.
Crying for my baby
Expressing sorrow for the speaker's lover, Gina.
Gina spent my money
Gina used the speaker's money.
I spent my money on Gina
The speaker spent money on Gina.
You can say I'm lonely
The speaker is possibly feeling lonely.
Lonely for my baby
Longing for the speaker's lover, Gina.
Hey I know that
A statement acknowledging awareness.
Don't you lie to me
Requesting truthfulness from someone.
I know that
Reaffirming prior knowledge.
Don't you lie to me
Requesting honesty from someone.
Gina's down by the water
Repetition of Gina's proximity to water.
The water's up around Gina
Reiteration of water surrounding Gina.
All last night I was crying
Repeating the previous night's crying.
Crying for my baby
Expressing sorrow for Gina again.
Hey sit down son
Addressing someone as "son" to share a story.
I'll tell you a story about the way things was
Preparing to tell a story about the past.
To make you sit up in your sleep
Expressing something surprising to capture attention.
It's kicks when you're feeling down
Describing finding pleasure when feeling low.
Sit down son
Repeating the addressing of someone as "son."
You want to hear a joke
Offering to tell a joke.
Well I got one
Preparing to share a joke.
That's just how my Gina sang
Comparing Gina's singing to a joke.
That's just how my Gina sang
Reiterating the comparison between Gina's singing and a joke.
