I am dry in the long hot days, and lonesome, lonesome, every memory.
I [Am] heard the flats all around me, up the sky up above,
[A] oh [D] lord I need a little water of love.
I've been here too long, and my heart feels pain, crying out for some excuse.
[Am] I believe I've taken it now, [D] lord I need a little water of love.
[Am] Water of love, deep in the ground, [G] but there ain't no water [D] here to bathe now.
[Am] Someday baby when the river runs free, [G] gonna carry that [D] water of love down.
