I was filling up at a Thornton's gas station today and this song was playing on the outdoor sound system. I think it has been 40-years since I've heard this song. I can't say that this song pushes memory buttons but, it is from a totally different period of my life. Pray and seek God, so that when you leave this world, you will not be thirsting for water in eternity. Eddie Money and his band were very talented. Thanks for posting this video, Pop Rock on MV. It was time capsule for me.
saw the man perform many times in vegas 90s. 19.99 tickets. on a dull tuesday. as i was driving i heard on radio, immediately made plans. the guy was a true rock star to the NOT SO HOITY TOITY
I saw Eddie once. It was bike week in Daytona, my first and only time there. It was a great week. anyway, We were with another couple, we came from Pittsburgh. Went downtown and decided to park the bikes and check out the town. When we were parking the bikes, the guy taking our cash asked if we were there to see Eddie Money. Kind of took me off guard. We said yes and he said we were just in time. The show was to start at 5 pm. It was around 4:30 at the time. He told us it was a free concert at the bandshell on the beach. We got there by 4:50 pm but the guy parking us was wrong. We got there in time for the last set. It was packed but a real bonus for us to see him live. The last set was every hit he had. I was Shakin and snappin my fingers the entire time.
One of the punk bands I used to go see in a small local bar would play this as their encore. They'd be throwing water on the mosh pit dancers and the people who knew the song would sing it empathetically. It always brought the house down.
"Gimme Some Water" Mama never understood what it's like for a losing man When her number one son goes bad playing cards with the Devil's Hand Daddy got real sick so quick - four walls never understand I was the one who got good with the gun - took the money from the rich man's land Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Give me some water I need a little water Jimmy grew up so fast and he met me at the pass one day Said, "You're a wanted man. Take your brother's hand - I'll be running with you, anyway." So we rode late in the night like fires on the desert sand 'til one day the posse caught us 'cause the sheriff always gets his man Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water I need a little water Oh, geeze, if I just get loose my hands I'd run just as fast as my legs can But, Lord, I've got no room to run Shouldn't have done what I did with that big gun Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Can't you see that long, white rope hanging from the hangman's tree Take the restless horse; tie my hands, of course; tell my mother that I'm finally free Let me die like a man - no one understands; let me pray that a poor man pray Smack that horse in the ass; with my last dying gasp my brother could hear me say Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Give me some water Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Give me some water Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border Cool, cool water Give me some water Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border Cool, sweet water Give me some water
Eddie money's songs are some of the greatest feel good classic rock songs ever written. This is so kick ass. RIP.
I used to think how cool it would be to have a beer with him and just chat. Seems like a good dude.
This deserved to be a much bigger hit. Awesome to hear the crowd singing the chorus! 🎶😎👍🎶
I saw Eddie on this tour (1982) in Akron Ohio, absolutely awesome show!!

I saw him in concert back in those days. He was fantastic. Truly missed by his fans.
R.I.P. Eddie Money, this is a really great song... Thanks for the memories!

saw the man perform many times in vegas 90s. 19.99 tickets. on a dull tuesday. as i was driving i heard on radio, immediately made plans. the guy was a true rock star to the NOT SO HOITY TOITY
Seen him in Santa Cruz at least 5 times I can remember great times

EDDIE WAS THE BEST 🖤🎶🎵🎤
That raw,rasp.
sure wished I would've seen him
Regular Rock music. Sounds good and groovy.
Man this guy was so great! but this video leaves me wondering... how the heck did he get Sammy Hagar to play drums for him?
It's Cowboy Bob Orton.
One of the punk bands I used to go see in a small local bar would play this as their encore. They'd be throwing water on the mosh pit dancers and the people who knew the song would sing it empathetically.
It always brought the house down.
I saw him on this tour.He opened for April Wine.
I thought both acts were good.
3:13 'gimme some whiskey'.. one of your fans is offering a cool , cool , glass of water....
The MOST SEXIEST VOICE EVER!!!!!!!
Yes, he certainly does, nothing like a New Yorker singing rock & roll!
3:09 just noticed the girl offering water…
Cowboy Bob Orton on the drums 🥁
that's not Cowboy Bob, he doesn't have the cast on his arm to attack people with ! 😂😂
"Gimme Some Water"
Mama never understood what it's like for a losing man
When her number one son goes bad playing cards with the Devil's Hand
Daddy got real sick so quick - four walls never understand
I was the one who got good with the gun - took the money from the rich man's land
Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water
I need a little water
Jimmy grew up so fast and he met me at the pass one day
Said, "You're a wanted man. Take your brother's hand - I'll be running with you, anyway."
So we rode late in the night like fires on the desert sand
'til one day the posse caught us 'cause the sheriff always gets his man
Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
I need a little water
Oh, geeze, if I just get loose my hands
I'd run just as fast as my legs can
But, Lord, I've got no room to run
Shouldn't have done what I did with that big gun
Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Can't you see that long, white rope hanging from the hangman's tree
Take the restless horse; tie my hands, of course; tell my mother that I'm finally free
Let me die like a man - no one understands; let me pray that a poor man pray
Smack that horse in the ass; with my last dying gasp my brother could hear me say
Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water
Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water
Give me some water 'cause I shot a man on the Mexican border
Cool, cool water
Give me some water
Give me some water 'cause I killed a man on the Mexican border
Cool, sweet water
Give me some water
Will Ferrel on drums???!!!
Was there anyone who got more out of their talent even with drug and alcohol problems
Partied with him in mpls he was a slob
Only half a kilo of powdered cocaine was consumed by the band before, during, and after this show.
looks like sammie hagar's missing twin on the drums
The sound sucks overall, but Eddie still sounds solid!✌️😸
Rock On
