Cool Drink O' Water Songtext
von Peter Case

Well, my donkey′s bop and she's been bopping all night long
Well, my donkey′s bop and she's been bopping all night long
If donks could talk, I'd know exactly what was wrong
Well, I wish I could take a walk back into time
Yeah, I wish I could take a walk back into time
Well, I′d find my dear sweet mama when she was mine, yeah

I need a cool drink of water, honey baby, in my cup
Pour me a cool drink of water, honey, and I′ll drink it up
Yeah, come on!

Well, I wake up in the dark and I feel so all alone
Yeah, I wake up in the dark and I feel so all alone
I roll it up my pillow and I miss everyone I've known

I need a cool drink of water, honey baby, in my cup
Pour me a cool drink of water, honey, and I′ll drink it up
Hey, come on!


Yeah, your mother was a hippie and your daddy was a rolling stone
Yeah, your mother was a hippie and your daddy was a rolling stone
While they were having fun, you were
Playing with your toys alone, yeah

You need a cool drink of water, honey baby, in your cup
Pour me a cool drink of water, honey, and I'll drink it up
Oh yeah!

Well, I was standing on this corner ten long years ago
Yeah, I was standing on this corner ten long years ago
Leaning on a lamppost, wondering which way to go
Now the moon is rising, grinning like a Cheshire cat
Yeah, the moon is rising, grinning like a Cheshire cat
On the boardwalk, silver coins are ringing in a dead man′s hat

I need a cool drink of water, honey baby, in my cup
Pour me a cool drink of water, honey, and I'll drink it up, yeah
I need a cool drink of water, honey baby, in my cup
Pour me a cool drink of water, honey, and I′ll drink it up
Woo! Yeah, come on!
