Bring me water baby, bring me water for I go

Bring me water baby, bring me water for I go

Let me quench my thirst

You won't see me no more 



Bring a shirt and a blanket, bring the shirt I always wore

Bring a shirt and a blanket, bring the shirt I always wore 

Give me shelter baby

You won't see me no more



Bring me bourbon baby, bring me bourbon 'for I go

Bring me bourbon baby, best bottle you have in store

Let me get all drunk this evening

You won't see me no more



And when you think of me

Picture me above the sea

Behind those blood-colored mountains-that's where I'll be

And when you think of me

Picture me flying

Oh my love, this morning, picture me flying



Bring me one last meal, feed me from your hand

Bring me one last meal, feed me from your hand 

And I know in the morning

You're gonna miss your lover man
