Bring me water baby, bring me water for I go
Bring me water baby, bring me water for I go
Let me quench my thirst
You won't see me no more

Bring a shirt and a blanket, bring the shirt I always wore
Bring a shirt and a blanket, bring the shirt I always wore
Give me shelter baby
You won't see me no more

Bring me bourbon baby, bring me bourbon 'for I go
Bring me bourbon baby, best bottle you have in store
Let me get all drunk this evening
You won't see me no more

And when you think of me
Picture me above the sea
Behind those blood-colored mountains-that's where I'll be
And when you think of me
Picture me flying
Oh my love, this morning, picture me flying

Bring me one last meal, feed me from your hand
Bring me one last meal, feed me from your hand
And I know in the morning
You're gonna miss your lover man
