Horse To The Water
(George Harrison/Dhani Harrison)
You can take a horse to the water but
You can't make him drink
Oh no, oh no, oh no
A friend of mine's in so much misery
Some people sail through life,
He has struck a reef
Said "hey, man, let's go out and get some wisdom"
First he turned on me,
Then turned off his nervous system
You take a horse to water but
You can't make him drink
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You can have it all laid out in front of you but
It don't make you think
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Someone I love's got a problem
Some people thirst for truth,
He would like a drink
Say "man this could turn out to be risky"
He said "everything's ok"
As he downed another bottle of whiskey
You take a horse to water but
You can't make him drink
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You can have it all staked out in front of you but
It don't make you think
Oh no, oh no, oh no
A preacher out there warning me about Satan
Could be that he knows him
He acts like he's possessed
I said "Hey man let's hear about God realisation
For a change"
He said "We ain't got time for that
First you must hear the evils of fornication"
You take a horse to water but
You can't make him drink
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You can have it all staked out in front of you but
Still don't make you think
Oh no, oh no, oh no
