When the water won't draw
When the water won't draw
And the river runs dry
And the river runs dry
I been watching that crow
I been watching that crow
Wondering when he's gonna fly
Wondering when he's gonna fly
When the water won't draw
When the water won't draw
Little lover won't satisfy
Little lover won't satisfy
Little lover won't satisfy
Little lover won't satisfy
When the water won't draw
And the river runs dry
I went to market but I didn't come back (back)
I put my penny on the railroad track (track)
The train came a-creeping like a diamond-back (back)
Make me wanna holler like a mountain jack
People, can I get on?
Can I get on?
(Little lover won't)
(Little lover won't)
(Little lover won't)
(Little lover won't)
I went to market but I didn't come back
I put my penny on the railroad track
The train came a-creeping like a diamond-back
Make me wanna holler like a mountain jack
I went to market but I didn't come back
I put my penny on the railroad track
The train came a-creeping like a diamond-back
Make me wanna holler like a mountain jack
People, can I get on?
Can I get on? (get on, get on, get on, get on)
A-little lover won't
A-little lover won't
(Little lover won't satisfy)
A-little lover won't
(Little lover won't satisfy)
A-little lover won't
(Little lover won't satisfy)
I been watching that crow
(Little lover won't satisfy)
I been watching that crow
(Little lover won't satisfy)
A-wonderin' when he's gonna fly
(Little lover won't satisfy)
Oh, but when he's gonna fly
(Little lover won't satisfy)
Little lover won't
(Little lover won't satisfy)
Little lover won't satisfy
(And the water won't draw)
And the water won't draw
(And the river runs dry)
When the whistle gonna blow
When the whistle gonna blow
Tell me that my work is over
Tell me that my work is done
