High and dry in the long hot day
|
Lost and lonely in every way
|
Got the flats all around me sky up above
|
I need a little water of love
|
|
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
|
Crying out for some soothing rain
|
I believe I have taken enough
|
I need a little water of love
|
|
Water of love deep in the ground
|
No water here to be found
|
Some day baby when the river runs free
|
It'll carry that water of love to me
|
|
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
|
Waiting for me to die
|
If I don't get some water soon
|
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
|
|
Once I had a woman I could call my own
|
Once I had a woman now my woman is gone
|
Once there was a river now there's a stone
|
You know it's evil when you're living alone
|
