| Chorus： | |
| We were standing | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Many years ago along the illinois-wisconsin border | |
| There was this indian tribe | |
| They found two babies in the woods | |
| White babies | |
| One of them was named elizabeth | |
| She was the fairer of the two | |
| While the smaller and more fragile one was named marie | |
| Having never seen white girls before | |
| And living on the two lakes known as the twin lakes | |
| They named the larger and more beautiful lake, lake elizabeth | |
| And thus the smaller lake that was hidden from the highway | |
| Became known forever as lake marie | |
| Repeat chorus: | |
| Many years later i found myself talking to this girl | |
| Who was standing there with her back turned to lake marie | |
| The wind was blowing especially through her hair | |
| There was four italian sausages cooking on the outdoor grill | |
| And man, they was ssssssssizzlin' | |
| Many years later we found ourselves in canada | |
| Trying to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish | |
| Whatever seemed easier | |
| That night she fell asleep in my arms | |
| Humming the tune to "louie louie' | |
| Aah baby, we gotta go now. | |
| Repeat chorus: | |
| The dogs were barking as the cars were parking | |
| The loan sharks were sharking the narcs were narcing | |
| Practically everyone was there | |
| In the parking lot by the forest preserve | |
| The police had found two bodies | |
| Nay, naked bodies | |
| Their faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object | |
| Saw it on the news on the tv news in a black and white video | |
| You know what blood looks like in a black and white video? | |
| Shadows, shadows that's exactly what it looks like | |
| All the love we shared between her and me was slammed | |
| Slammed up against the banks of old lake marie, marie | |
| We were standing | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Whoa wah oh wha oh | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Peaceful waters | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Peaceful waters | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Peaceful waters | |
| Standing by peaceful waters | |
| Peaceful waters | |
| Aah baby, we gotta go now |
