All day I've faced 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 (cool) clear (clear) water (water) 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 (cool) clear (clear) water (water) Keep on moving Dan, don't you listen to him, Dan He's a devil, not a man He spreads the burning sand with water Dan, can't you see that big green tree Where the waters run is free, waiting there for you and me? Cool (cool) clear (clear) water (water)
