AboutBeth Burgess Expertise I can answer just about any question about lyrics or the artists who recorded the songs--80s and 90s country especially. I don't watch many new videos, but the older the video question, the more likely I am to be able to answer it.
Experience I've been a country music fan for all of my 25 years! I somehow have a knack for being able to remember all the words to all the songs (and who sang them for the most part) even though I can't carry a tune to save my life!
Education/Credentials I'm currently enrolled in law school (so if I can't remember an answer off the top of my head, I have excellent research skills!)
Question Jeffrey Steele sings There Must Be Something In The Water
Answer Hi Lee! I'm glad you were able to find what you were looking for! I was able to get the lyrics and a link to the video for you. Sorry I wasn't more help!

Jeffrey Steele - "There Must Be Something In The Water"
She don't look like her mother
Nothin like her father
How else can you explain it
There must be somethin in the water
Pigtails, overalls, freckles on her face
Skinny as a toothpick turned sideways
Somethin happened to her when she turned 16
From a little Dixie chicken to a Mississippi queen
hey hey
Spent her days a fishin with a bamboo cain
Every night skinny dippin in the Pontchartrain
If you were livin, breathin, had two feet
You'd be drawn to that girl like a bee to something sweet
You could always find her when the night time fell
Crankin up a bucket from that old stone well
Drinkin from her hands
Singin at the moon
She don't look like her mother
Nothin like her father
How else can you explain it
There must be somethin in the water
I'll never forget that look in her eyes
The night she snuck me down to the river side
She wrapped her arms around me like a honeysuckle vine
Her lips they had a taste of wild cherry wine
You could always find her when the night time fell
Crankin up a bucket from that old stone well
Drinkin from her hands
Singin at the moon
She don't look like her mother
Nothin like her father
How else can you explain it
There must be somethin in the water
Well two straight months without any rain
We never ever saw that girl again
But I still got her picture burning in my head
Dancin in a down pour soaking wet.
You could always find her when the night time fell
Crankin up a bucket from that old stone well
Drinkin from her hands
Singin at the moon
She don't look like her mother
Nothin like her father
How else can you explain it
There must be somethin in the water
She don't look like her mother
Nothin like her father
Folks down here say it somethin in the water
