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
