Marty O'Reilly & the Old Soul Orchestra - WHEN THE WATER RUNS OUT

If you really love to go fishing
Then the news might bring you some dismay
The end was abrupt when all the water dried up,
And we caught all of the fish in one day
I still got my favorite raincoat,
Its been so long since i hung it up to dry,
The best i could do, had to get used to blue,
Its all that's left up in the sky,
I may not know a single thing about religion,
I still know a little bit what faith is all about
I know a little bit what faith is all about,
I know you don't cry, you don't complain
You got to pray, pray for rain.
Don't you wait, don't you wait till when the water runs out.
You can travel out to Indonesia,
But you're never going to get there if you try to go by sea,
I heard they had to build some kind of railroad,
Out where the south pacific used to be
If you head over to East Saint Louis,
Then the big muddy won't run by,
Muddy and the Wolf ran off to the Gulf,
Never even said goodbye
I may not know a single thing about religion,
I still know a little bit what faith is all about
I know a little bit what faith is all about,
I know you don't cry, you don't complain
You got to pray, pray for rain.
Don't you wait, don't you wait till when the water runs out.
