Lyrics

  1. Way out on the desert
    Way out on the desert
    Way out on the desert
    Not a drop to drink

Chorus
Oh, wish I had a drink
Wish I had a drink
Just a little drink or two
Can’t we have a drink
Just a little drink
Any little drink will do
If I had a drink
Just a little drink
Then I wouldn’t feel so blue
Don’t you really think
We ought to have a drink
Just a little drink with you

  1. Mouth is full of cotton
    Mouth is full of cotton
    Mouth is full of cotton
    Oh for just one drink
  2. Host please do your duty
    Host please do your duty
    Host please do your duty
    How about a drink

Ending
How dry I am, I want a drink
