I Asked for Water (He Gave Me Gasoline)

I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline

I asked him for water
But he gave me gasoline

I went down to the depot
Looked up on the board
I went down to the depot
Looked up on the board

Saw that train a-running
But I could not get on board

I asked the conductor
Can I ride the blinds
I asked the conductor
Can I ride the blinds

Said, "Girl, buy your ticket
Buy your ticket 'cause this train ain't none of mine"

I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline

I asked him for water
But he gave me gasoline
