Lyrics

Brother

[Verse 1]

Me and my brother hikin'

Me and my brother might find

A turtle, just have some fun

Me, and my brother playing

With our dog, two mighty men with a wolf

Who drinks from the gulf

[Chorus]

Cool, calm water will bring back our voice to Mother

Cool, calm water bring your voices back

[Verse 2]

I fell down in a creek bed

Brother wept in his face I met

Fear that I could die right there

Now I've grown bold and lonely

I should've stayed with dear brother

At home, we grew up old

[Chorus]

Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother

Cool, calm water bring your voices back

Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother

Cool, calm water bring your voices back

[Verse 3]

Da-da da-da-da

Da-da da-da-da da

Da-da-da

Da-da da-da-da da, dum

Da-da-da

La-la-la, la-la-la

Me and my brother hikin'

I fell down in a creek bed

La-la-la, la-la-la-la

Me and my brother might find

Brother wept in his face I met

La-la-la

A turtle, just have some fun

Fear that I could die right there

[Chorus]

Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother

Cool, calm water bring your voices back

Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother

Cool, calm water bring your voices

[Outro]

Cool, calm water, cool, calm water

Cool, calm water bring your voices back
