Re: BG: One Drop of Water

[Mary Appleton]

ï James,  I really appreciate the lyrics.  However you didn't help me win my argument.  (Ha ha) I know it sounds like DOOR,  but I thought it would be HOARD,  because it rhymes with AFFORD.  Also the idea of being surrounded by A DOOR seems strange to me.  Anyway that's another point for the other side.  Our version came from a disc also.  I would love to see a copy of the original lyrics.  But thank you so much.   I really do appreciate the effort.   Mary   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2004 5:37 PM Subject: Re: BG: One Drop of Water I had a copy of the lyrics to "One Drop Of Water" stored on a floppy disc so I thought I'd pass it on.   Here it is:   ONE DROP OF WATER (Key of A)     THE RICH MAN LIVED IN LUXURY SURROUNDED BY HIS DOOR   HEâD ALWAYS HAD THE VERY BEST THAT MONEY COULD AFFORD   HE LEFT THIS WORLD NOT CARING ABOUT HIS RESTING PLACE   HE LAID HIS EYES TOWARD HEAVEN, BUT IT WAS TOO LATE.     Chorus: GIVE ME ONE DROP OF WATER, THE RICH MAN CRIED FROM HELL   ONE DROP OF WATER, BUT STILL NO WATER FELL   HE ALWAYS WAS A SELFISH MAN HIS HEART WAS FULL OF GREED   BUT A LITTLE DROP OF WATER IS ALL HEâLL EVER NEED.
