Do You Want To Go To Heaven lyrics

by T. G. Sheppard





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...

Chorus:
Wanna go to heaven
And I said Yeah, just lead me on.
Take my hand, can you feel that feelin’?
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, Do you...

Chorus:

It was a lonely night in August
She was sittin’ 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, Do you...

Chorus:
