| I was raised in the house of a real holy roller
|
| Warned the people about the ways of sin
|
| He said go out yonder to the water and travel
|
| 'Cause disciples they were fishers of men
|
| Yeah disciples they were fishers of men
|
| So I got me a job on the first boat rowin'
|
| And it’s been a mighty long time
|
| Since I sat in the house of my father and my mother
|
| Or I seen that woman of mine
|
| Yeah that good lovin' gal of mine
|
| I said babe I’m a-goin' on a little bitty journey
|
| I’ll be back when the fishin' is through
|
| While I’m waitin' in case get ready
|
| For when Jesus comes for you
|
| When the Good Lord comes for you
|
| When Jesus comes for you
|
| Here it comes
|
| Sayin' «Shall we gather by the water
|
| The beautiful water
|
| Shall we gather by the water
|
| That flows from the throne of God»
|
| Truth it lies in the love of a woman
|
| Lord don’t sink this boat
|
| I got a pretty little thing waitin' in New Orleans
|
| With a dagger by her throat
|
| She don’t wanna do it but she’s that crazy
|
| And if I don’t make it back
|
| She’ll probably die alone and cold
|
| As the creole night turns black
|
| Sayin' «Shall we gather by the water
|
| The beautiful water
|
| Shall we gather by the water
|
| That flows from the throne of God»
|
| Shall we gather by the water
|
| The beautiful water
|
| Shall we gather by the water
|
| That flows from the throne of God |
