Cool Drink of Water Blues

I asked her for water, and she gave me gasoline
Man, that's the evilest woman, that I ever seen
Cryin' Lawd, now mama, will I ever get back home?
Lawd, Lawdy Lawd
I went to the depot, looked up on the board
I looked all over, "How long has this eastbound train been gone?"
"It's done taken your
Faror, blowed its smoke on you"
Lawd, Lawdy, Lawd
I asked the conductor, "Can I
Ride the blinds
?"
(Want to know, can a broke man ride the blinds?)
"Son, buy your ticket, this train ain't none of mine"
