robert hazard - whole lot of water lyrics

Loading...

there’s a road in the sand through the sugar cane
there’s a house that stands in the sun and rain

where the old man sits and the ships go by
he never did get up he never even tried

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water in the old man’s eyes

me and sarah kaye, we grew up a team
in the bright blue sky, in the hurricanes

like two boats that sail, tryin’ to break free
from the prison walls of the deep blue sea

that’s a whole lot of water, more than i can cry
a whole lot of water in my baby’s eyes

i never been no slave to no history book
and ev’ry fish i caught i let it off the hook

so i paint the shapes of the sea and sky
and i teach my hand to obey my eye

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water in a young man’s eyes

but as ships come in to the old town pier
i would sell my soul in the pictures there

rich lady said “boy, that not have been”
told me she could sell ev’rything i had

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water could have p-ssed me by

so i packed my bags and i hit new york
and i learned to swim in a pool of sharks

all the city lights took away my breath
and when a cold wind blew i nearly caught my death

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water more than money buys

now i dream some things me and sarah kaye
sailin’ into the sun out on old coos bay

with an ice cold beer roll across my brow
i would give anything if i could be there now

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water to the other side

now the bright green leaves have turned to brown
in a crimson street on the sun gone down

oh the pale blue skies fade away to white
and it all dissolves in the black of night

that’s a whole lot of water, more than i can cry
a whole lot of water in a young man’s eyes

that’s a whole lot of water more than i can cry
a whole lot of water and i’m runnin’ dry
