Henry Rollins - Fetch the Water lyrics

You are the oldest one My momma said to me Go fetch some water son We boil the potatoes in Fetch the water Fetch the water Fetch the water Fetch the water My momma said to me On to the river son For your brothers and sisters We all is hungry (Chorus) So I ran as fast as I could All the way across the town On my way back from the river A wreck I'd not seen before Knocked me down to the ground Spilling all the water out (Chorus) Once again I felt the bucket And run back to my family I arrive all out of breath With all the water needed Found out while I was gone My momma done me wrong She fried the potatoes And now they're all gone (Chorus x5)
