Cool Water (Remastered 2022) - Burl Ives/Essential Classics
Lyrics by：Bob Nolan
Composed by：Bob Nolan
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 clear water
Cool clear water
Keep a-movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan
He's a devil not a man
And he spreads the burning sand with water
Water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water's runnin' free
And it's waiting there for me and you
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 clear water
Keep a-movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan
He's a devil not a man
And he spreads the burning sand with water
Dan can you see that big green tree
Where the water's runnin' free
And it's waiting there for me and you
The shadows sway and seem to say
Tonight we pray for water cool water
And way up there he'll hear our prayer
And show us where there's water cool clear water
Cool clear water
Keep a-movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan
He's a devil not a man
And he spreads the burning sand with water
Water
Dan can you see that a big company
Where the water's runnin' free
And it's waiting there for me and you
