Coldwater Woman

Otis Claybrooke | July 22, 2026

[Verse 1]
She got a smile like the first of spring
And a heart like the dead of December
Pull you in close, let the cold wind sing
Leave you shaking — can’t even remember

[Chorus]
Coldwater woman, why you do me this way?
Warm me up at midnight, freeze me out by day
I been burning for you, baby, but you don’t feel a thing
Coldwater woman — got winter in her ring

[Verse 2]
I’d swim through the bayou, walk through the flame
Crawl ‘cross the gravel just to call your name
But you stand there laughing while I’m down on my knees
Pour me another — let me freeze, let me freeze

[Bridge]
One of these mornings I’m gonna pack my soul
Catch that southbound highway, dig out of this hole
‘Cause a man can’t live on a love that’s cold
No, a man can’t live on a love that’s cold
