Travis Randy - Pray for the Fish lyrics

Everybody gathered where the river runs wider

At the edge of town

To see that Eddie Lee Vaughn baptism

Was really gonna go down

Folks bet their hard earned money

That water wouldn't change a thing

They set the odds at a hundred to one

His soul wouldn't never come clean

Then the preacher said

People take a moment or two

There's something we need to do

Pray for the dish

They won't know what's coming

When the sin starts rolling off the likes of him

Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin'

Please won't you leave them just a little bit ‘a room to swim

Pray for the fish

Well the preacher ducked him under

That cool clear water

Then he did it again

Eddie came up yelling

Lord in Heaven Hallalujah!

I'm a brand new man

Well the water got to bubbling

Sky got to rumbling

And the thunder backed up the choir

The fish started jumpin'

It was like they was swimmin'

In a lake of fire

Then Eddie's momma stepped out of the crowd

And started yelling out loud

Pray for the dish

They won't know what's coming

When the sin starts rolling off the likes of him

Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin'

Please won't you leave them just a little bit ‘a room to swim

Pray for the fish

He said everybody cross your fingers

Fold your hands

Pray for Ole Eddie

But before we say amen

Pray for the fish

Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin'

Please won't you leave them just a little bit ‘a room to swim

Pray for the fish

Lord pray for the fish
