All day I face the barren waste Without the taste of water, cool water Old Dan and I with throats burned dry And souls that cry for water Cool, clear water The night is cool and I'm a fool Each star is a pool of water, cool water And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn And carry on to water Cool, clear water Keep a-movin' Dan, don't you listen to him Dan, he's a devil, not a man I have to disgrace the burning sand with water Dan, can't you see that big green tree Where the water's runnin' free And it's waitin' out for you and me Water, cool, clear water The shadows sway and seem to say Tonight we pray for water, cool water And way up there you'll hear our prayer And show us what there's water Cool, clear water Keep a-movin' Dan, don't you listen to him Dan, he's a devil, not a man I have to disgrace the burning sand with water Dan, can't you see that big green tree Where the water's runnin' free And it's waitin' out for you and me Water, cool, clear water Cool, clear water
