High and dry in the long hot dayLost and lonely in every wayGot the flats all around me sky up aboveI need a little water of loveIve been too long lonely and my heart feels painCrying out for some soothing rainI believe I have taken enoughI need a little water of loveWater of love deep in the groundNo water here to be foundSome day baby when the river runs freeItll carry that water of love to meTheres a bird up in a tree sitting up highWaiting for me to dieIf I dont get some water soonIll be dead and gone in the afternoonOnce I had a woman I could call my ownOnce I had a woman now my woman is goneOnce there was a river now theres a stoneYou know its evil when youre living alone
