I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
But he gave me gasoline
I went down to the depot
Looked up on the board
I went down to the depot
Looked up on the board
Saw that train a-running
But I could not get on board
I asked the conductor
Can I ride the blinds
I asked the conductor
Can I ride the blinds
Said, "Girl, buy your ticket
Buy your ticket 'cause this train ain't none of mine"
I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
Gave me gasoline
I asked him for water
But he gave me gasoline
