Wade in the water
|
Wade in the water, children
|
Wade in the water
|
For God is gonna trouble that water
|
The sea is blood, the moon is bone
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
I walk this highway all alone
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
No coat, no food, no automobile
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
Jesus alone knows how I feel
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
Wade in the water
|
Wade in the water, children
|
Wade in the water
|
God is gonna trouble that water
|
See that town all bathed in dust?
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
Nobody in this world I trust
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
Holes worn through my Sunday shoes
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
I got them low-down Judas blues
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
Wade in the water
|
Wade in the water, children
|
Wade in the water
|
God is gonna trouble that water
|
The air is hot, the water’s cold
|
What lurks beneath is ages old
|
See that man who holds the key?
|
He chained that Beast now sets it free
|
Wade in the water
|
Wade in the water, children
|
Wade in the water
|
For God is gonna trouble that water
|
The pews are empty, folks moved on
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
Despair has gripped me by the bones
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
I lay down on those tracks to die
|
(God is gonna trouble the water)
|
That train, it’s a-coming by and by
|
(God is gonna trouble that water)
|
That’s right
|
Wade in the water
|
Wade in the water, children
|
Wade in the water
|
For God is gonna trouble that water
|
God is gonna trouble that water |
