Les Humphries Singers - We Are Goin' Down Jordan lyrics

We are goin' down Jordan

We are goin' down Jordan

We are goin' down Jordan

We're gonna walk the heavenly road.

We are goin' down Jordan...

I was living my life as an Anglican.

Let me tell you how I changed to a baptiste man.

I was living my life as an Anglican.

Let me tell you how I changed to a baptiste man.

One night I was walking down Frederick Street

Poor and hungry

No shoes on my feet.

I passed the door that said: "Down with sin" !

It was the smell of food that pulled me in.

We are goin' down Jordan...

Well

The leader woke up and shook my hand

Said:"Iwant you to be a holy man"

Right away I made a quick decision

My stomach was groaning for this true religion.

I started over to get some food

When some of my sisters approached me in a mysteric mood.

Duck me in the water for five times

I couldn't see a thing I cause I was almost blind.

We are goin' down Jordan...

You got to moan

Children

Moan

You got to moan

Children

Moan

And if you want to go

To heaven when you die

You got to moan

Children

Moan.
