Bubbling Water Spring

One day I found off in the woods a bubbling water spring
It was lively and delicious, and a very special thing
I took some water home with me and I stored it in a jar
At the spring you can hear it sing, but it is very, very far
I would drink a little now and then to try to make it last
But it seems I would be out of water really, really fast
I found I had a helper who loved that sparkling burst
Now and then she would have a sip to quench her little thirst
Little Amy then would ask when she found out that I knew
So I took her on that trip real far to get more water too
We filled up many jars and jugs at our bubbling water store
We wanted lots and lots to drink so we brought home many more
Now we won’t be out of water of that very special kind
We loved that special bubbling water, the best that you could find
