In the desert where we searched for gold the days're hot the nights're cold  
Hank and Joe and me walked on so bold and brave and free  
For days and days we fought the heat I got so thirsty and I got so weak  
And when I fell cause I couldn't go I heard Hank say to Joe  
He's dyin' (dyin' dyin') for water hear him cryin' (cryin' cryin') for water  
Well lay him down in the dust and sand he said Joe you know he's a dyin' man  
Leave him there and let him die I can't stand to hear him cry for water  
I don't remember how long I lay but when I awoke it was the break of day  
Buzzards circled miles ahead I knew Hank and Joe were dead  
My eyes were dimmed but I could see a bed of gold nuggets under me  
Now I know that it won't be long till they decorate my bones  
Cause I'm dyin' (dyin' dyin') for water can't help cryin' (cryin' cryin') for water  
Well they laid me down in the dust and sand he said Joe you know he's a dyin' man  
Leave him there and let him die I can't stand to hear him cry for water  
He couldn't stand to hear me cry for water
