| 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 |
