Cool Water

Words and music by bob nolan

Revised lyrics by joni mitchell



All day i face the barren waste

Without a taste of water

Cool water

Old dan and i

Our throats slate dry

Our spirits cry out for water

Cool clear water

Keep on movin' dan

Some devils had a plan

Buried poison in the sand

Don't drink it man

It's in the water

Cool clear water

In my mind i see

A big green tree

And a river flowin' free

Waitin' up ahead

For you and me

Cool clear water



The nights are cool and i'm a fool

Each star is a pool of water

Cool water

But come the dawn

We carry on

We won't last long without water

Cool clear water

Keep on movin' dan

We're still in no-man's land

Dry bones and sand

People never planned here for water

Cool clear water

In my mind i see

A big green tree

And a river flowin' free

Waiting up ahead for you and me

Cool clear water



The shadows sway

They seem to say

Tonight we pray for water

Cool water

And way up there

If you care

Please show us where

There's good water

Cool clear water
