Songtexte Cool Water (Undubbed Version) - Hank Williams

All day I've faced the barren waste
Without the taste of water
Cool 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 water
Cool, clear water

Like me, I guess, he'd like to rest
Where there's no quest for water
Cool, clear water
