Water of Love lyrics

High and dry in the long hot day

Lost and lonely every way

Got the flats all around me sky up above

Yes I need a little water of love

I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain

Crying out for some soothing rain

I believe I have taken enough

Yes I need a little water of love

Water of love deep in the ground

But there ain't no water here to be found

Some day baby when the river runs free

It's gonna carry that water of love to me

There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high

Just a-waiting for me to die

If I don't get some water soon

I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon

Water of love deep in the ground

But there ain't no water here to be found

Some day baby when the river runs free

It's gonna carry that water of love to me

Once I had a woman I could call my own

Once I had a woman now my woman she gone

Once there was a river now there's a stone

You know it's evil when you're living alone

Water of love deep in the ground

But there ain't no water here to be found

Some day baby when the river runs free

It's gonna carry that water of love to me
