Cool Water
(*Bob Nolan) [** Originally written by Nolan in 1936:] [** Most famous version by The Sons of the Pioneers in 1948:]
All day I've faced a barren waste Without the taste of water, cool water Old Dan and I with throats burnt dry And souls that cry for water Cool, clear, water
Keep a-movin, Dan, don'tcha listen to him, Dan He's a devil, not a man And he spreads the burning sand with water Dan, can ya see that big, green tree? Where the water's runnin' free And it's waitin' there for me and you? It's water, cool, clear water.
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'tcha listen to him, Dan He's a devil, not a man And he spreads the burning sand with water Dan, can ya see that big, green tree? Where the water's runnin' free And it's waitin' there for me and you?
It's water, cool, clear, water Cool, clear, water Cool, clear, water
