Nothing But The Water (I)

I have seen what man can do

When the evil lives inside of you

Many are the weak

And the strong are few

But with the water

We'll start anew

Well, won't you take me down to the levy, take me down to the stream, take my down to the water,

we're gonna wash our souls clean, take me down to the river, take me down to the lake,

Yes, we'll all go together, we're gonna do it for the good lord's sake

I have fallen so many times

For the devil's sweet, cunning rhymes

And this old world

Has brought me pain

But there's hope

For me again

Well, won't you take me down to the levy, take me down to the stream, take my down to the water,

we're gonna wash our souls clean, take me down to the river, take me down to the lake,

Yes, we'll all go together, we're gonna do it for the good lord's sake

Tried my hand at the bible, tried my hand at prayer, but now nothing but the water is gonna bring my soul to bare,

but now nothing but the water is gonna bring my soul to bare
