The Manning river, Wingham.
All day I face the barren wasteWithout a taste of waterCool waterOld Dan and IOur throats slate dryOur spirits cry out for waterCool clear waterKeep on movin' DanSome devils had a planBuried poison in the sandDon't drink it manIt's in the waterCool clear waterIn my mind I seeA big green treeAnd a river flowin' freeWaitin' up aheadFor you and meCool clear waterThe nights are cool and I'm a foolEach star is a pool of waterCool waterBut come the dawnWe carry onWe won't last long without waterCool clear waterKeep on movin' DanWe're still in no-man's landDry bones and sandPeople never planned here for waterCool clear waterIn my mind I seeA big green treeAnd a river flowin' freeWaiting up ahead for you and meCool clear waterThe shadows swayThey seem to sayTonight we pray for waterCool waterAnd way up thereIf you carePlease show us whereThere's good waterCool clear water
