Gimme Some Water
Eddie Money Mama never understood What it`s like for a losing man When her number one son goes bad Playing cards with the devil`s hand But daddy got real sick so quick For wars I`ll never understand I was the one that good with the fun Took the money from the rich man`s land Cause I shot a man Gimme some water On the Mexican border Cool, cool water Gimme some water I need a little water Jimmy grew up so fast Then he met me at the pass one day Said, you`re a wanted man Take your brother`s hand I`ll be running with you anyway So we rode late in the night Like the fires on the desert sand Til one day, the posse caught us Cause the sheriff always gets his man Gimme some water On the Mexican border Cause I killed a man Cool, cool water I need a little water I`ve run just as fast as my legs can Oh Jeez, I just can`t lose my hand But Lord, I got no room to run Shouldn`t have done what I did with that big gun Hey hey, yeah Gimme some water Cause I killed a man On the Mexican border Cool, cool water Can`t you see that long white rope Hanging from the hangman`s tree Take a restless horse Tie my hands of course Let me die like a man Tell my mother that I`m finally free No one understands With my last dying gasp Let me pray that a poor man`s brave My brother could hear me say Smacked that horse in the ass Gimme some water Cool, cool water Cause I shot a man On the Mexican border Gimme some water Gimme some water Cause I shot a man Cool, cool water On the Mexican border Gimme some water Gimme some water Cause I shot a man Cool, cool water On the Mexican border Gimme some water Cause I killed a man Gimme some water Cool, sweet water On the Mexican border Gimme some water |
