The Replacements - Cool Water lyrics

All day i face the barren ways Without the taste of water Cool water All day and night, our throats burn dry And our souls, they cry For water Cool, clear water The nights are cool and i'm a fool Each star's a pool of water Cool water And with the dawn, i wake and yawn And carry on To water Cool, clear water Say dan, can you see that big green tree Where the waters run free And it's waiting there for me The shadows sway and they 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, clear water Cool, clear water
