Oh, I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline
Oh, I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline
I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline
I went down to the depot looked up on the board
I went down to the depot looked up on the board
Saw that train a running but I could not get on board
I asked the conductor can I ride the blinds
I asked the conductor can I ride the blinds
Said girl buy your ticket buy your ticket
Cause this train ain't none of mine

SOLO

Oh, I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline
Oh, I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline
I asked him for water, he gave me gasoline

Ich bat um Wasser (er gab mir Benzin)

Oh, ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
Oh, ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
Ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
Ich ging zum Bahnhof, schaute auf das Brett
Ich ging zum Bahnhof, schaute auf das Brett
Sah den Zug fahren, doch ich konnte nicht einsteigen
Ich fragte den Schaffner, ob ich blind mitfahren darf
Ich fragte den Schaffner, ob ich blind mitfahren darf
Er sagte: "Mädchen, kauf dein Ticket, kauf dein Ticket,"
"Denn dieser Zug gehört nicht mir"

SOLO

Oh, ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
Oh, ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
Ich bat ihn um Wasser, er gab mir Benzin
