Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Un reroute the rivers
Let the damned water be
There's some people down the way that's thirsty
So let the liquid spirit free
[Verse 2]
The people are thirsty
'Cause of mans' unnatural hand
Watch what happens when the people catch wind
When the water hit the bank of that hard dry land
[Verse 3]
Clap your hands now
Go ahead, clap your hands now
Clap your hands now
Go ahead, clap your hands now
[Verse 4]
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
[Verse 5]
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
[Verse 6]
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
[Verse 7]
Get ready for the wave
It might strike like a final flood
The people haven't drank in so long
The water won't even make mud
[Verse 8]
After it comes, it might come with a steady flow
Grab the roots of the tree down by the river
Dip your cup when your spirit's low
Clap your hands now
[Verse 9]
Un reroute the rivers
Let the damned water be
There's some people down the way that's thirsty
Let the liquid spirit free
[Verse 10]
The folk are thirsty
'Cause of mans' unnatural hand
Watch what happens when the people catch wind
Of the water hittin' the bank of that hard dry land
[Verse 11]
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
[Verse 12]
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
[Verse 13]
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
Get down and take a drink
And fill your water tank
[Verse 14]
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
Liquid spirit
