JACK SCOTT lyrics - Cool Water

All day I face a barren waste

Without the taste of water

Cool water (water)(water)(water)

Old Dan and I, with throats burned dry

An' souls that cry for water (water)(water)

Cool (water)

Clear (water)

Water (water, water)



A-keep a-movin, Dan (water)

Don't you listen to him, Dan (water, water)

He's the devil not a man

And he spreads the burning sand with water (water)

Dan, can't you see that big green tree (water)

Where the water's runnin' free (water)

And it's waitin' there for me and you

Cool clear water (water, water)



Shadows sway and seem to say

Tonight we pray for water

Cool water (water)(water)(water)

And way up there he'll hear our prayer

And show us where there's water (water)(water)

Cool (water)

Clear (water)

Water (water)(water, water)(water)



A-keep a-movin, Dan (water)

Don't you listen to him, Dan (water, water)

He's the devil not a man

And he spreads the burning sand with water (water)

Dan, can't you see that big green tree (water)

Where the water's runnin' free (water)

And it's waitin' there for me and you

Cool clear water (water, water)



(Keep a-movin, Dan) (water)

(Don't you listen to him, Dan) (water, water)

(He's the devil not a man)

(And he spreads the burning sand with water) (water, water, water)

Cool clear water (water, water, water)
