We are going down Jordan[00:00:13]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:15]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:18]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:00:20]

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:23]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:26]

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:28]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:31]

One night I was walking down Fred'rick street[00:00:33]

Poor and hungry no shoes on me feet[00:00:36]

I passed a door that said Down with sin[00:00:38]

It was the smell of food that pull me in[00:00:41]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:43]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:46]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:48]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:00:51]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:54]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:56]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:58]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:01:01]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:03]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:06]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:08]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:01:11]

Well the leader walked up and he shook my hand[00:01:13]

Said I want you to be a holy man[00:01:16]

Right away I made a big decision[00:01:18]

Me stomach was a growling for this new religion[00:01:21]

I started over to get some food[00:01:24]

When some sisters approached me in a mystic mood[00:01:26]

They dunked me in the water 'bout four five times[00:01:28]

I couldn't see a thing 'cause I was almost blind[00:01:31]

Singing I've got a sword in my hand[00:01:33]

I'm going to use it well[00:01:38]

I was drenched to me skin and I was feeling cold[00:01:43]

But the sight of the food made me take a hold[00:01:55]

The sisters started to break away[00:01:58]

They said Kneel believers kneel and pray[00:02:00]

I prayed and I prayed in a new found style[00:02:03]

In the meantime me taste buds was running wild[00:02:05]

I was about to fall clear out of me seat[00:02:08]

When a man jumped up and said Before you eat[00:02:10]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:13]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:15]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die[00:02:17]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:02:20]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:02:42]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:44]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:02:47]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:02:49]

Don't talk 'bout the leaders they treat me good[00:02:52]

Plenty sweet oil and plenty food[00:02:54]

Brother it was then that I realized[00:02:57]

Ev'ry man on earth should be baptized[00:02:59]

Going down Jordan[00:03:02]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:07]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:12]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:15]

Going down Jordan[00:03:16]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:18]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:21]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:23]

Going down Jordan[00:03:26]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:28]

We are going down Jordan[00:03:38]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:03:42]
