The foreman over there hates the gang
The poor people on the farms get it so rough
Truck drivers drive like the devil
The policemen they're acting so tough
They need water
Good water
They need water
And I'm sure there isn't one of us here
Who'd say no to somebody's daughter
No, no, no, no, no
The foreman over there hates the gang
The poor people on the farms get it so rough
Truck drivers drive like the devil
The policemen they're acting so tough
They need water
Good water
They need water
And maybe somebody's daughter
Indian Lake is burning
The New York skyline is hazy
The River Thames is turning dry
The whole world is blazing
We need water
Wow yeah good water
Ooh we need water
And maybe somebody's daughter
Ah give me give me good water
Ah give me give me give me good water
Ah give me good water
Please don't refuse me, mister
I seen your daughter at the oasis
And I'm beginning to blister
My Chevrolet just made steam
Your crop is laying foul
My grass skirt's lost its green
I'm alive but I don't know how
I need water, good, good water
They need water
give me give me give me good water
Wow, give me give me give me good water
give me give me give me good water
Come on give me give me give me
Champagne!

Great song off the Isle of Man concert DVD. I like how they talk on stage in between songs. Keith Moon remains one of my favorite drummers just because he just lets loose.
Oh man, I love this song. Yeah, Keith Moon will be one of the greatest drummers in whole world. I love how he's crazy while playing. I like how Pete slapped Keith in the face before they played this.
Pete explained what this song was about, Let me go check the dvd again
Awesome song.
This song is on the expanded version of "Who's Next". But the live version is waaay better - as always with the Who.
Pete said that here, 'water' means 'love'. But since Roger is the singer and has a bit of a macho complex, there's no way he would've sung "we need love", so Pete changed it to 'water' for him because its just as fluid and uncontrollable as love.
