Wilbert Harrison Cool Water Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All day I face the barren waste
Without the taste of water
Cool water

[Chorus]
Old Dan, can't you see that big, green tree
Where the water runnin' free?
It's waitin' there for you and me
You and me

[Verse 2]
Keep a-movin', Dan, doncha listen to him, Dan
He's a devil, not a man
He face the burnin' sand with water, water

[Chorus]
Old Dan, can't you see that big, green tree
Where the water runnin' free?
It's waitin' there for you and me
You and me

[Verse 1]
All day I face the barren waste Without the taste of water
Cool water

[Chorus]
Then way up there I'll hear a prayer
And carry on for water, water
Cool, clear water
Water

[Verse 2]
Keep a-movin, Dan, doncha listen to him, Dan
He's a devil, not a man
He face the burnin' sand with water, water

[Chorus]
Old Dan and I, we carried on for rest
Where there was no quest
For water, water
Cool, clear water
Water

[Outro]
Water, water, water, water, water
Water, water
