Songtext von Chilly Water

In the easy chair with my boots on A melted whiskey in my hands I couldn't been asleep for more than 3 hours Time to go to work again Once more I beat the sunrise And there's a dark breeze up my door Raise the water from the well up to my face How could a man like me be poor? As long as there's water Chilly wet water Gimme some of that cool, cool water Well, my horse's eyes are glassy He breathed the city in his lungs last night I lead his natural body To the trough to regain his might Red rooster crow them blues here That Old Blue he round the bull And the morn's crying to raise the sunrise It hasn't rained for three weeks full As long as there's water Chilly wet water Gimme some of that cool, cool water Venus light is rising I lay my buckets inside the shed And there's a man I see - a stranger Leaning on the gate outside my fence Said "I'm riding out from the city Where I was starting for the water back last night I was hoping to get a drink from your well Before I ride on to another city tonight (x3)" Chilly wet, chilly wet, chilly water Cool, cool, water... Before I ride on
