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 water
The night are cool and I'm a fool each stars a pool of water
Cool water
But with the dawn I'll wake and yawn and carry on to water
Cool water
Keep a movin' Dan, don't you listen to him Dan, he's a devil not a man
And he spreads the burnin' sand with water
Dan can't you see that big green tree where the waters runnin' free
And it's waiting there for me and you
Water, cool water
The shadows sway and seem to say tonight we pray for water
Cool water
And way up there He'll hear our prayer and show us where there's water
Cool Water
Dan's feet are sore he's yearning for just one thing more than water
Cool water
Like me, I guess, he'd like to rest where there's no quest for water
Cool water
