Brazos

Wade across the Brazos Walk the water like Jesus They're gonna come from all directions tonight And baby, we ain't got no home Here today and tomorrow we're gone But you look beautiful by the fireside Child, we ain't from this world The whole thing, it cause my heart to moan Babe, we are strangers in this land They say that white folks are never lazy, baby They say that white folks are never lazy, child They say that white folks are never lazy Then baby, what are we doing here? Oh child, what are we doing here? Take it easy, baby Take it easy, baby Take it easy, baby, tonight My heart's sinking like apostle Peter Lord, sunk like a stone because he wasn't a believer And I'm not sure, babe, that I am either Child, I'm just not sure They say In the kingdom there's no sun to burn, baby In the kingdom there's no cracker to hurt you, child In the kingdom there'll be no slavery Baby, do you think that's true? Oh child, do you think that's true? Take it easy, baby Take it easy, baby Take it easy, baby, tonight Wade across the Brazos Walk the water like Jesus We're gonna need the Lord's help tonight My body is a-bending low Underneath life's crushing blow Golden hours come swiftly on the wing Stand beside me, baby, won't you hear the angels sing? Child, won't you hear the angels sing? Stand beside me, baby, won't you hear the angels sing? Child, won't you hear the angels sing? Baby, won't you hear the angels sing? Jesus Christ is our Lord Jesus Christ, he is your friend
