Big Thirst Songtext

von Jim Capaldi

Everybody's standing in a lake crying out for the rain.
Hoping for a miracle to drive away the pain.
And some are heavy with a thirst which burns their very soul.
For no-one sees direction when they're standing in a hole.

Big thirst on my head 0h Lord. Big thirst in my mouth.
But I can see those green fields stretchin' to the south.

Some are walking in their graves, knowing it's no use.
Beaten up for ignorance and treated with abuse.
0 God I need your hand so bad, help me to get through.
Cause I know there's a place for me standing next to you.

Big thirst on my head 0h Lord. Big thirst in my mouth
But I can see those green fields stretchin' to the south

Everybody's looking up at the sky waiting for a sign
Blind men leading blind men, who are dragging on a line
People shooting at the sun, trying hard not to see
All the trouble in this world that's caused by you and me

Big thirst on my head 0h Lord. Big thirst in my mouth
But I can see those green fields stretchin' to the south
