paroles de chanson Gimme Some Water - Eddie Money

Mama never understood
What it's like for a losing man
When her number one son goes bad
Playing cards with the devil's hand

But daddy got real sick so quick
Four walls never understand
I was the one who got good with the gun
Took the money from the rich man's land

Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water
I need a little water

Jimmy grew up so fast
Then he met me at the pass one day
Said, "You're a wanted man
Take your brother's hand
I'll be running with you anyway"

So, we rode late in the night
Like the fires on the desert sand
'Til one day, the posse caught us
'Cause the sheriff always gets his man

Give me some water
'Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
I need a little water

Oh, geeze, if I just get loose my hands
I'd run just as fast as my legs can
But, Lord, I've got no room to run
Shouldn't have done what I did without that gun

Give me some water
'Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water

Can't you see that long, white rope
Hanging from the hangman's tree
Take the restless horse, tie may hands, of course
Tell my mother that I'm finally free

Let me die like a man, no one understands
Let me pray that a poor man pray
Smack that horse in the ass, with my last dying gasp
My brother could hear me say

Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water

Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water

Give me some water
'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water

Give me some water
'Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, sweet water
Give me some water
