Alabama 3 - Wade Into The Water lyrics
[Alabama 3 - Wade Into The Water lyrics]
I wanna go deep down yeh
‘Cause, I remember
Met down by the river
The blue moon on the rise
I broke down like Brando moved
By your Marilyn Monroe eyes
We were swimmin in silver
We were searchin for gold
And we promised that night that
We would never grow old
And you sang to me
Wade into the water with me
Wash my body down
Take me to the bottom baby
I won’t make a sound
Baptise me like a child, let salvation start
‘Cause if you take me to the
Bottom of the river baby
I’ll take you to the bottom of my heart
We got brighter than heaven, Lord yeh
We shone like the stars
I got as … as drunk as Bogart
You were just smokin’ like Bacall
We were diggin’ for diamonds
We were divin’ for pearls
Higher up than the satellites and
Out of this world
And you sang to me
Wade into the water with me
Wash my body down
Take me to the bottom baby
Cos I won’t make a sound
Baptise me like a child
Gotta let salvation start
‘Cause if you take me to the
Bottom of the river baby
I’ll take you to the bottom of my heart
Now the … the river is frozen
The blue moon is down
My drink has run dry
Lord ya cigarettes gone out
All the diamonds and the pearls
Yeh all the silver and the gold
They were all turned to dust
Yeh it’s so cold
Singin’ it
Wade into the water with me
Wash my body down
Take me to the bottom baby
Cos I won’t make a sound
Baptise me like a child
Gotta let salvation start
‘Cause if you take me to the
Bottom of the river baby
I’ll take you, I will take you there
So
Wade into the water with me
Wash my body down
Take me to the bottom baby
Cos I won’t make a sound
Baptise me like a child
Gotta let salvation start
‘Cause if you take me to the
Bottom of the river baby
I’ll take you to the bottom of my heart
