Gimmie Some Water

Mamma never understood what it's like for a losing man I remember when sun goes back play cards with the devils hand But daddy got me sick so quick for the rules I'll never understand I was the one that got good with the gun Took the money from the rich man's hand Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool cool water gimme some water water Jimmy grew up so fast he met me at the pass one day Said you're a wanted man take your brother's hand I'll come running with you anyway So we rode late in the night like the fires on the deserts sand So one day the posse got us cause 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 If I'd just get loose my hand I'd run just as fast as my legs can But Lord I got no room to run I shouldn't a done what I did with that there gun Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool cool water gimme some water Can't you see that long white rope hangin from the hangman's tree Take the restless horse tie my hands of course tell my mamma I'm finally free Let me die like a man no one understands Let me pray that I'm home & grey Smack that horse in the ass with my last dying gasp My brother could hear me say Repeat 3 Times Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool cool water gimme some water
