Eddie Money - Gimme Some Water

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
