Vaughn monroe and his orchestra
Vocals by vaughn monroe vm and the sons of the pioneers sn *this asterisk denotes where a member of the sons of the pioneers injects the
Word 'water' his other phrasings are in parenthesis in the lyrics. this happens throughout the song.

Vm all day I've faced a barren waste
Without the taste of water
Sp cool water * .
Vm old dan and I with throats burned dry
And souls that cry for water
Cool, clear, water.
Sp keep a movin' dan * dontcha 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 water's * runnin free
And it's waiting * there for me and
You? (cool, clear, *)

Vm the shadows sway and seem to say
"Tonight we pray for water".
Vm&sp cool water *
Vm then way up there,
He'll hear our pray,
And show us where,
There's
Vm&sp water *
Sp cool * clear * water *

Sp keep a movin', dan,*
Doncha 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 water's* running free
And it's waitin'* there for me and you?
(Cool, clear, *)

Orchestra swing the song
A trumpet in the lead
Then a guitars
A western rhythm

Vm dan's feet are sore
He's yearning for
Just one thing more than water
Vm&sp cool water *
Vm like me I guess,
He'd like to rest,
Where there's no quest for water
Vm&sp cool,* clear, * water (cool, clear *)
Vm&sp water!
