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 in so much misery   Some people sail through life,but he has struck a reef   I said 'hey man let's go out and get some wisdom'   But first he turned on me, then he 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 layed/staked out in front   of you but it still don't make you think   Oh no, oh no, oh no      Someone I love is gotta problem   Some people thirst for truth, but he would like a drink   I said 'Hey man this could turn out to be risky'   He said 'everything's ok' as he downed another bottle of whiskey      There's a preacher out there warned me about Satan   Could be that he knows him   Cause' 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"      © George Harrison & Dhani Harrison   RIP Ltd, 2001      Recorded 2 October 2001
