Gimme Some Water

Thank you so much here! This song about a boy got himself in a lot of trouble So, my second record is called, "Gimme Some Water" Gimme some water 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 Four walls never understand I was the one that got good with the gun Took the money from the rich man's land Gimme some water 'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Gimme some water I need a little water See Jimmy, you 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 fires on the desert sand 'Til one day, the posse caught us The sheriff always gets his man Gimme some water 'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water I need a little water Oh jeez, I just can't lose my hand I've run just as fast as my legs can But jeez, I got no room, I got no room to run Shouldn't have done what I did without that big, that big, that big gun Gimme some water 'Cause I shot 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 Mama I'm finally free Let me die like a man no one understands Let me pray like a poor man pray Smack that horse in the ass With my last dying 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 Uh, shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water (won't you gimme some water?) Gimme some water 'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Gimme some water 'Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Gimme some water The boy got himself in a hell of a lot of trouble Thank you, you're very kind, man, beautiful audience Hey, we got to get out of here, man We ain't up through the night here, we got to go We'll see you this summer Get 'em out of there My friends call me Pete Thank you, we got to go, thank you Thank you Thank you
