Cool Water Blues by Houston Stackhouse Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lord, I asked for water, and she gave me gasoline
Lord, I asked for water, she gave me gasoline
Lordy, I asked for water and she gave me gasoline
Lord, Lordy, Lord

[Verse 2]
Crying, Lord, I wooh, will I ever get back home
Crying, Lord, I wooh, will I ever get back home
Lord, Lordy, Lord

[Verse 3]
Lord, I went to the depot, looked up on the board
Lord I asked her, "How long has this southbound train been gone?"
She said, [?]
She said, [?]
Lord, Lordy, Lord

[Verse 4]
Lord, I asked the conductor, "Could I ride these blinds?"
Want to know, can a broke man ride the blinds, boy I ain't got a dime
He said, "Son, buy your ticket, buy your ticket, 'cause this train ain't none of mine"
He said, "Son, buy your ticket, buy your ticket, 'cause this train ain't none of mine"
He said, "Son, buy your ticket, buy your ticket, 'cause this train ain't none of mine"
Lord, Lordy, Lord
