All day I face a barren waste Without the taste of water Cool water (water)(water)(water) Old Dan and I, with throats burned dry An' souls that cry for water (water)(water) Cool (water) Clear (water) Water (water, water) A-keep a-movin, 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 (water)(water)(water) And way up there he'll hear our prayer
And show us where there's water (water)(water) Cool (water) Clear (water) Water (water)(water, water)(water) A-keep a-movin, 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 a-movin, 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)
