Can't you hear
Can't you hear me crying? 
Bring me little water, Sylvie 
Bring me little water out 
Bring me little water, Sylvie 
Every little once in a while 
Sylvie says she loves me 
But I believe she lies 
She hasn't been to see me 
Since the last day in july

I'm so hot'n dry

Can't you hear 
Can't you hear me crying 
Bring me little water, Sylvie 
Bring me little water out 
Bring me little water, Sylvie 
Every little once in a while 
She brought me a little coffee 
She brought me a little tea 
Well, she brought me nearly every damned thing 
But she didn't bring the jailhouse key
