preaching up a storm - mel mcdaniel lyrics
they were down by the river on that lincoln county sh0r-
singing peace in the valley and preaching up a storm
there was a crowd gathered down by the river
where me and benny thompson used to play
i wondered if they had enough a water
to wash old lester harper’s sins away
cause i heard miss ida whisper he’s too lost to save
well they would sing and it would rain and it was frightening
some things are hard to understand when you’re eight
i can still hear the thunder and see the lightning
when preacher hayes raised his hands to pray
i could feel my body tremble cause i was so afraid
yeah they were down by the river on that lincoln county sh0r-
singing peace in the valley and preaching up a storm
[ guitar ]
i was there but i could barely hear the sermon
i was scared and didn’t care to get up close
i heard him tell ’em something was a burning
and then he shouted something about a ghost
and when they walked down in the water
sister harper hollered please don’t let him go
well they were down by the river on that lincoln county sh0r-
singing peace in the valley and preaching up a storm
they were down by the river on that lincoln county sh0r-
singing peace in the valley and preaching up a storm
they were down by the river on that lincoln county sh0r-
singing peace in the valley and preaching up a storm
