Mamma never understood what it's like for a losing man
G D A
I remember when sun goes back play cards with the devils hand
G D A
But daddy got me sick so quick for the rules I'll never understand

I was the one that got good with the gun

Took the money from the rich man's hand
A G D A
Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
G D A G D A G D A
Cool cool water gimme some water water
Jimmy grew up so fast he met me at the pass one day
Said you're a wanted man take your brother's hand
I'll come running with you anyway
So we rode late in the night like the fires on the deserts sand
So one day the posse got us cause the sheriff always gets his man
Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool cool water I need a little water
If I'd just get loose my hand I'd run just as fast as my legs can
But Lord I got no room to run
I shouldn't a done what I did with that there gun
Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool cool water gimme some water
Can't you see that long white rope hangin from the hangman's tree
Take the restless horse tie my hands of course tell my mamma I'm
finally free
Let me die like a man no one understands Let me pray that I'm home &
grey
Smack that horse in the ass with my last dying gasp
My brother could hear me say
Repeat 3 Times
Gimme some water Cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool cool water gimme some water
