Cool Water — текст песни (Sons Of The Pioneers)

(Bob Nolan)

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, clear, water.

Chorus:
Keep a-movin` Dan don`t ya listen to him Dan
He`s a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water`s running free
And it`s waiting there for you and me?

The nights are cool and I`m a fool
Each star`s a pool of water, cool water
But with the dawn I`ll wake and yawn
And carry on to water, cool, clear, water

Chorus:
Keep a-movin` Dan don`t ya listen to him Dan
He`s a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water`s running free
And it`s waiting there for you and me?

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, clear, water

Chorus:
Keep a-movin` Dan don`t ya listen to him Dan
He`s a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water`s running free
And it`s waiting there for you and me?

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, clear, water

Chorus:
Keep a-movin` Dan don`t ya listen to him Dan
He`s a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water`s running free
And it`s waiting there for you and me?
