Do You Wanna Go to Heaven Lyrics

It was the hottest day of August
All of us were down by the banks of the Paint Rock River
I was next in line to be baptized
At the innocent age of ten

And I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
And that preacher's words still fill my head
And I hear them now and then he said

Do you wanna go to heaven
And I said yeah just lead me on
Take my hand can you feel that feeling
And I said yes just lead me on

It was the hottest day of summer
And our final high school dance was just about over
I was old enough for the taste of love
When boys turn into men

And I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But the preacher's words I barely heard
As sweet Bonnie Lou gave in she said

It was a lonely night in August
She was sitting at the end of the bar when I saw her
And with a little wine and an little time
She would be a prize to win

Now I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But that preacher's words could not be heard
When she whispered come on in she said
