[00:13.13]In the desert where we searched for gold
[00:15.99]The days're hot the nights're cold
[00:19.14]Hank and Joe and me walked on
[00:22.20]So bold and brave and free
[00:25.42]For days and days we fought the heat
[00:28.47]I got so thirsty and I got so weak
[00:31.59]And when I fell 'cause I couldn't go
[00:34.69]I heard Hank say to Joe
[00:36.45]
[00:37.66]He's dyin' (Dyin' dyin')
[00:40.98]For water
[00:43.68]Hear him cryin' (Cryin' cryin')
[00:47.35]For water
[00:50.25]Well lay him down in the dust and sand he said
[00:54.50]Joe you know he's a dyin' man
[00:57.27]Leave him there and let him die
[01:00.21]I can't stand to hear him cry for water
[01:03.74]
[01:06.13]I don't remember how long I lay
[01:09.44]But when I awoke it was the break of day
[01:12.50]Buzzards circled miles ahead
[01:15.36]I knew Hank and Joe were dead
[01:18.59]My eyes were dimmed but I could see
[01:21.97]A bed of gold nuggets under me
[01:24.94]Now I know that it won't be long
[01:27.83]Till they decorate my bones
[01:29.84]
[01:30.91]'Cause I'm dyin' (Dyin' dyin')
[01:34.23]For water
[01:37.02]Can't help cryin' (Cryin' cryin')
[01:40.34]For water
[01:43.56]Well they laid me down in the dust and sand he said
[01:47.73]Joe you know he's a dyin' man
[01:50.84]Leave him there and let him die
[01:53.65]I can't stand to hear him cry for water
[01:59.48]He couldn't stand to hear me cry for water
