Do You Want To Go To Heaven - 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 ill never forget I remember it yet the taste of that clear pure water

And that preachers 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 feelin'

And I said yeah just lead me on

It was the hottest night of summer

And our final high school dance were just about over

I was old enough for the taste of love when boys turn into men

And ill never forget I remember it yet the taste of that clear pure water

But the preachers words I've barely heard as sweet bonnie lou gave in

She said do you wanna go to heaven

And I said yeah just lead me on

Take my hand can you feel that feelin'

And I said yeah just lead me on

It was a lonely night in August

She was sittin' at the end of the bar when I saw her

And with the little wine and a little time

She would be a prize to win

Now ill never forget I remember it yet the taste of that clear pure water

But that preachers words could not be heard

Wen she whispered come on in

She said do you wanna go to heaven

And I said yeah just lead me on

Take my hand can you feel that feelin'

And I said yeah just lead me on

She said do you wanna go to heaven

And I said yeah just lead me on

Take my hand can you feel that feelin'

And I said yeah just lead me on

She said do you wanna go to heaven
