Cool Water Songtext
von Hank Williams

All day I′ve faced the bar - ren waste
With out the taste of wa-ter... cool, wa-ter.
Ole Dan and I, with throats burned dry,
And souls that cry
For wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.

The nights are cool and I'm a fool.
Each star′s a pool of wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.
And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
And car-ry on
To wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.


The sha - dows sway and seem to say
To- night we pray for wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter
And way up there He'll hear our prayer
And show us where
There′s wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.

Keep a-movin′ Dan. Don't you listen to him Dan.
He′s the devil, not a man.
He spreads the burnin' sand with wa-ter.
Say Dan can′t you see that big green tree,
Where the water's runnin′ free.
It's waiting there for you and me
And wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.

Dan's feet are sore he′s yearnin′ for
Just one thing more than wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.
Like me I guess he'd like to rest
Where there′s no quest
For wa-ter... cool, clear wa-ter.
