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

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

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

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

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:33]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:36]

I was livin' me life as an Anglican[00:00:38]

Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man[00:00:41]

One night I was walking down Fred'rick street[00:00:44]

Poor and hungry no shoes on me feet[00:00:47]

I passed a door that said Down with sin[00:00:49]

It was the smell of food that pull me in[00:00:51]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:57]

We are going down Jordan[00:00:59]

We are going down Jordan[00:01:07]

Let's walk the heavenly road[00:01:12]

Well the leader walked up and he shook my hand[00:01:15]

Said I want you to be a holy man[00:01:18]

Right away I made a big decision[00:01:21]

Me stomach was a growling for this new religion[00:01:23]

I started over to get some food[00:01:26]

When some sisters approached me in a mystic mood[00:01:29]

They dunked me in the water 'bout four five times[00:01:31]

I couldn't see a thing 'cause I was almost blind[00:01:34]

Singing I've got a sword in my hand[00:01:36]

I'm going to use it well[00:01:42]

I was drenched to me skin and I was feeling cold[00:01:47]

But the sight of the food made me take a hold[00:02:00]

The sisters started to break away[00:02:03]

They said Kneel believers kneel and pray[00:02:05]

I prayed and I prayed in a new found style[00:02:08]

In the meantime me taste buds was running wild[00:02:10]

I was about to fall clear out of me seat[00:02:14]

When a man jumped up and said Before you eat[00:02:22]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:03:00]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:03:08]

And if you want to go to Heaven when you die[00:03:14]

You got to mourn children mourn[00:03:22]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:03:25]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:03:42]

Well before I baptized I had plenty pain[00:04:31]

Now I find myself a free man again[00:04:42]

Don't talk[00:05:28]
