This forgotten song made its claim to fame during the 1994 Fall tour as a new song that the band played regularly with alternating lyrics. It was played last on New Year's Eve 1994 and never again made a return despite attempts by fans to remind Dave of the song. It was recorded in the "Crash" sessions, but didn't make the final cut (Steve Lillywhite, Oct. 1998).

This appears to be an improvised song that Dave and Friends played and/or teased several times over the course of the Caribbean Cruise Getaway in February 2006. The setlist originally posted on dmband.com lists two separate songs, "Off the Boat" and "Get on the Boat," as being played; however, these two songs are identical save for Dave's singing "Gotta get off the boat" during one and "Gotta get on the boat" during the other. - dmbalmanac

This song appeared in the Dave and Tim 1997 tour as a slight evolution from the 1996 Dave and Tim song known as "Weight of the World." During 1997, the song became widely known as "Weight of the World / Leave Me Praying". For the purposes of distinction, we designate "Weight of the World" as the original 1996 incantation and "Leave Me Praying" as the incantation from 1997 until its evolution into "Don't Drink the Water" during the Before These Crowded Streets studio sessions.
