Cool Water - Hank Williams

All day I've faced the barren waste
Without the taste of water
Cool clear water
Ole Dan and I with throats burned dry
And souls that cry for water
Cool clear water
The nights are cool and I'm a fool
Each star's a pool of water
Cool clear water
And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
And carry on to water
Cool clear water
The shadows sway and seem to say
Tonight we pray for water
Cool clear water
And way up there He'll hear our prayer
And show us where there's water
Cool clear water
Keep a-movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan
He's the devil not a man
He spreads the burnin' sand with water
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 water
Cool clear water
Dan's feet are sore he's yearnin' for
Just one thing more than wa-ter
Cool clear water
Like me I guess he'd like to rest
Where there's no quest for water
Cool clear water
