Lyrics

Mmmmmm Un re-route the river Let the dammed water be There's some people down the way that's thirsty Let the liquid spirit free The folk are thirsty Coz of mans unnaturel hand Watch what happens when the people catch winds Of water hitting the banks of the hard dry land Clap your hands now x 4 Get ready for the wave It might come like the final flood The people haven't drank in so long The water wont even make mud After it comes, it might come like a steady flow Grab the roots of tree down by the river Take a cup when your spirits low Clap your hands now x 4 Get down take a drank and fill your water tank Un re-route the river Let the dammed water be There's some people down the way that's thirsty Let the liquid spirit free The folk are thirsty Coz of mans unnaturel hand Watch what happens when the people catch winds Of water hitting the banks of the hard dry land Clap your hands now x 4
