Lyrics

Liquid Spirit

Un re-route the rivers

Let the dammed water be

There's some people down the way that's thirsty

So let the liquid spirit free

The people are thirsty

Cause of man's unnatural hand

Watch what happens when the people catch wind

When the water hits the banks of that hard dry land

Clap your hands now

Go 'head and clap your hands now

Clap your hands now

Go 'head and clap your hands now, hmm

Get ready for the wave

It might strike like the final flood

The people haven't drank is so long

The water won't even make mud

After it comes, it might come with a steady flow

Grab the roots of the tree

Down by the river, fill your cup when your spirit's low

Clap your hands now

Go 'head and clap your hands now

Clap your hands now

Clap your hands now

Dip down and take a drank

And fill your water tank

Dip down and take a drank

And fill your water tank

Un re-route the rivers

Let the dammed water be

There's some people down the way that's thirsty

So let the liquid spirit free

The folk are thirsty

Because of man's unnatural hand

Watch what happens when the people catch wind

Of the water hitting banks of hard dry land

Clap your hands now

Clap your hands now

Go 'head and clap your hands now

Clap your hands now

Hmm

Get down and take a drink

And fill your water tank

Dip down and take a drink

And fill your water tank

Liquid spirit

Liquid spirit

Liquid spirit

Liquid spirit

Clap your hands now

Liquid spirit
