Fountains & Drains Lyrics

Jimmy was a rocker with a heart of gold

He'd help any stranger, young or old

He met this beautiful girl at a bar

She played him like he played his guitar

He flew her out to Austin to go see Queen

When she got evicted, he said "move in with me"

One day he got off work and surprised her at home

Found her in his bed and she wasn't alone

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

They'll bring you pleasure or leave you in pain

You can keep waiting for them to change

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

Met him at a party when she was 16

He drove a red corvette, had a tattoo sleeve

She was daddy's little angel, pearls and straight As

But they started cutting class and there went her grades

Flying down the freeway, 105

In the rear view mirror she could see the blue lights

Officer found heroin searching the trunk

But her only crime was being in love

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

They'll bring you pleasure or leave you in pain

You can keep waiting for them to change

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

They'll suck the life right out of you

Break your little heart in two

Your friends say "I told you" when you complain

You can try to love them but the truth will remain

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

They'll bring you pleasure or leave you in pain

You can bask in the sunshine or drown in the rain

Some people are fountains, some people are drains

Some people are fountains, some people are drains
