Steps bowed up and the hurricane chimes To the wind kickin' up and the sun beatin' down Aint no rain in sight bone dry in the valley And nobody smiles but the rich in the alley. Chorus Doncha miss that water when it's gone Doncha miss that water when it's gone Rich in the alley free in the gutter Take a drink to the past and pray for another Holdin' on in the corner words slappin' the flies To the cries of the crows in a lonesome sky. Chorus Doncha think about me when the sun goes down Stars raisin' up all over this town I'm lost in the heat burnin' round and round Doncha miss that water when it's gone. Chorus Chorus
