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
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 you and me
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 you and me water cool clear water
