The Rooftop Singers - The Best Of

Dip Your Fingers

Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

I'm tormented (one drop of water)
I'm tormented (some)

Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Who's that comin' up yonder?
Carrying such a heavy load
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Must be brother Lazarus
Walking in the middle of the road
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

He saw a fire burning
Burning on in the night
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Dropped his burden and he straightened up
Headed on toward the light
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

I'm tormented (one drop of water)
I'm tormented (some)
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Who's that weary traveller walking on alone?
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Must be a bored builder, roam
A looking for a home
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

He came across the ocean
In 70 days or more
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Lookin' to build a happy land
Free from fear and war
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

I'm tormented (one drop of water)
I'm tormented (some)
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame

Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the flame
Dip your fingers in the water
Come and cool my tongue
'Cause I'm tormented in the-
Flame
