Cool Water Songtext
von Johnny Cash

All day I′ve faced a 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 burnin' sand with water

Dan, can you 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't you listen to him, Dan
He′s a devil, not a man
And he spreads the burnin′ sand with water

Dan, can you 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
