Eddie Money Give Me Some Water Lyrics

Mama never understood what its like for a losin man.
When her number-one son goes bad playin cards with the devils hand.
Boy, Daddy got real sick so quick ******* never understand.
I was the one who got good with the gun, took the money from the rich mans hand.
Gimme some water!
Cause I shot a man 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, Youre a wanted man Take your brothers hand
Id be runnin with you anyway.
So we rode late in the night like the fires of the desert sand
Till one day the posse caught us cause the sherriff always gets his man.
Gimme some water!
Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, cool water
I need a little water
Oh, Jeez, I just cant loose my hands!
Ive run just as fast as my legs can!
But, Lord, I got no room to run!
Shouldnt a done what I did with that there gun!
Hey, hey, yeah!
Gimme some water!
Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, cool water
Cant you see that long white rope
Hangin from the hangmans tree?
Take the restless horse tie my hands, of course -
Tell my mother that Im finally free.
Let me die like a man no one understands
Let me pray Let a poor man pray!
Smack that horse in the a__.
With my last, dyin gasp, my brother could hear me say,
Gimme some water!
Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, cool water
Gimme some water.
Gimme some water!
Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, cool water
Gimme some water!
Gimme some water!
Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, cool water
Gimme some water!
Gimme some water!
Cause I killed a man on the Mexican border.
Cool, sweet water
Gimme some water
