Joni Mitchell — Cool Water

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Keep on movin' Dan Some devil's had a plan Buried poison in the sand Don't drink it, man It's in the water Cool clear water [Bridge] In my mind I see a big green tree And a river flowin' free Waitin' up ahead for you and me Cool clear water [Verse 2] The nights are cool and I'm a fool Each star's a pool of water Cool water But come the dawn, we carry on We won't last long without water Cool clear water [Chorus 2] 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 [Bridge] In my mind I see a big green tree And a river flowin' free Waiting up ahead for you and me Cool clear water [Verse 3] 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 Songwriter: Bob Nolan
