all day i face a barren waste
without the taste of water
cool water waterwaterwater
old dan and i with throats burned dry
an’ souls that cry for water waterwater
cool water
clear water
water water water
akeep amovin dan water
don’t you listen to him dan water water
he’s the devil not a man
and he spreads the burning sand with water water
dan can’t you see that big green tree water
where the water’s runnin’ free water
and it’s waitin’ there for me and you
cool clear water water water
shadows sway and seem to say
tonight we pray for water
cool water waterwaterwater
and way up there he’ll hear our prayer
and show us where there’s water waterwater
cool water
clear water
water waterwater waterwater
akeep amovin dan water
don’t you listen to him dan water water
he’s the devil not a man
and he spreads the burning sand with water water
dan can’t you see that big green tree water
where the water’s runnin’ free water
and it’s waitin’ there for me and you
cool clear water water water
keep amovin dan water
don’t you listen to him dan water water
he’s the devil not a man
and he spreads the burning sand with water water water water
cool clear water water water water
