The Water Is Free
by Peter Penrose

Album: Peter Penrose

Adam sat by the creekbank
And he started to think
I'm feeling kinda thirsty
I think I'll take a drink
I sold my soul
Just to eat from that tree
Well, thank God the water is free

Mmm, Moses stood by the seashore
With his back to the wall
He said, "Oh, Lord, this pharaoh
Is gonna kill us all"
I'm gonna stretch out my arms
I'm gonna part this Red Sea
Well, thank God the water is free

And the water is rushing
From a well that's gushing
It's coming straight down
From heaven above
There's a hot wind blowing
But the river keeps flowing
It's a river of peace
It's a river of love

I thought I'd drink me a ​bottle
Of society's wine
A little fame and fortune
I thought would taste so fine
But when the price gets too high
For a beggar like me
I just thank God the water is free

And the water is rushing
From a well that's gushing
It's coming straight down
From heaven above
There's a hot wind blowing
But the river keeps flowing
It's a river of peace
It's a river of love, love

For every soul that's thirsty
For every soul that's dry, yeah
There's a fountain flowing
From a place on high
Where you can drink all you want
It's sweet as can be
And you can thank God
The water is free, yeah, yeah

Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me
Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me

Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me
(Can you thank God)
Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me

Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me
(It's coming on down)
Thank God the water is free
(I want, I want to, I want to thank God)
It's coming on down for you and me
(The water is free)

Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me
Thank God the water is free
(Mmm...)
It's coming on down for you and me

(Thank God)
You can thank God
Living water, cleansing water
(Thank God)
Drink this water
You will never thirst again

Thank God the water is free
It's coming on down for you and me
Thank God the water is free
