lyrics

Rachel give me water I'm dry as a bone
Rachel give me water I'm dry as a bone
I've been travelling and I feel so alone

I love to watch your hair hanging over that well
I love to watch your hair hanging over that well
the way it makes me feel I could never tell

if you will come with me I've been promised land
if you will come with me I've been promised land
where we could live together away from the wind and the sand

I've been walking since this morning and my lips are chapped
I've been walking since this morning and my lips are chapped
let me drink from your hands and lay my head in your lap

Rachel give me water to wet the tip of my tongue
Rachel give me water to wet the tip of my tongue
I'm so dry and you're so sweet and young

I ain't no fool I've always been crafty and wise
I ain't no fool I've always been crafty and wise
but when I look at you Rachel I want to dip that cup in your eyes

Rachel you've got palm trees waving in your hair
Rachel you've got palm trees waving in your hair
when I fall on my knees you keep off the sun and the glare

sandstorms are blowing across the rocks and the dunes
sandstorms are blowing across the rocks and the dunes
but above it all Rachel your face shines clear like the moon

the prophets are jabbering the Lord lay them all in a trance
the prophets are jabbering the Lord lay them all in a trance
they tell me the angels all sit down to watch when you dance

Rachel give me water I'm dry as a bone
Rachel give me water I'm dry as a bone
I've been travelling and I feel so alone
