Gimme Some Water - Live

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
 for wars i'll never understand
 i was the one that good with the fun
 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
 Jimmy 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 the fires on the desert sand
 til one day, the posse caught us
 cause the sheriff 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 can't lose my hand
 i've run just as fast as my legs can
 but lord, i got no room to run
 shouldn't have done what
 i did with that big gun
 Hey hey, yeah
 Gimme some water
 cause i killed 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
 tell my mother that i'm finally free
 Let me die like a man
 no one understands
 let me pray that a poor man's brave
 smacked 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
 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
