St. Cajetan Lyrics

You know I don't feel well.
I gotta thirst in my mouth.
And all I want is a cool drink of water.
You know I don't feel well.
I got salt in my wounds.
And all I want is a cool drink of water.

Can you hear me, St. Cajetan?
I once knew a well so sweet.
I put my lips, my lips to the pail to drink.
But I gave it all up for salt water.

You know I don't feel well.
Got the salty taste of my tears.
And all I want is some relief from this.

You know I don't feel well
Been tossed and turned on this ocean.
And all I want is this one wish.

Can you hear me, St. Cajetan?
All I want is a cool drink of water.
Can you hear me, St. Cajetan?
All I want is a cool drink of water.
Can you hear me, St. Cajetan?
All I want is a cool drink of water.

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me, St. Cajetan?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for St. Cajetan lyrics by Cracker

I read somewhere that St. Cajetan is the patron saint of labor/work/employment. . .especially in Argentina and South America.

I think the song has to do with asking for a little success. . .in whatever capacity. Maybe love life, or perhaps professional.

"I once knew a well. . .so SWEET I'd put my lips to the pail and drink, But I'd give it all up for. . .Some WATER"

Memories are nice, but right now, he just wants a little something more tangible.

Love this band, and long live Skunka'Dunque.
