(Verse)

Half mile from the holler was a deep ol’ stream

Everybody in their Sunday whites

I was just a kid, barely older than three

With my mama waitin’ there in line

“Wash your children of their sins”

I still remember what the preacher said

And I recall every time I see a stream

When I asked her what it meant 

(Chorus)
Did he just bless the water

Is it gonna turn into wine

Can we still come back and fish with daddy

Why are so many people cryin’

Is Jesus in there somewhere

How are we all his sons and daughters

Does the preacher hold on so we don’t drown

Mama, did he just bless the water 

(Verse)

Thirty years later, and that mountain stream

It’s all dried up down to mud

People today are washin’ sins away

Inside in a plastic tub

Ain’t no hymnals sung from the mountainside

No ladies dryin’ off the kids

I wonder if mine coulda seen it then

If they’d ask their mama what it meant 

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

There was something ‘bout that old scene set

The mysteries that I recollect

A mystic energy I can’t forget 

(Spoken) And, to be honest, a tad embarrassed that I asked

(Chorus) 

11: I Wanna Do It All (Pop, country, modern) 

(Verse)
If this life has any reason

I’d trade it in for wonder

That my hand fits right to yours

Is not some mystery I ponder

If there’s fate or destiny

May fortunes keep me close to you

For there’s so much I hope we see

And still so much I wanna do

(Chorus)

I wanna spin around you ‘til we’re both dizzy

I wanna make the great escape, break you out with me

I wanna chase through fields of green, let you come get me

I wanna sing aloud and shout our hearts in tune

I wanna do it all with you

(Verse)

If there’s a way to slow these hands

I bet we’ll achieve it

We might overstay our welcome

But we’re still not leavin’

Will you keep belief in me

As I keep belief in you

Your heart is where I wanna be

The only thing I wanna do

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I wanna live a life of love with whom I belong to

I wanna walk the universe, witness its marvels

I wanna see infinity

The birth of suns, the death of seas

While I hold onto you

And you hold onto me

(Chorus)
