===================================
(Verse One)
I know of sin by the things momma prayed
I know of heaven by the line at its gate
I know of truth and America's way
Come drink the water if you want to be saved

(Verse Two)
Don't drink the water if it's not from my stream
It's all still water if it's not flowing free
Don't drink the water at the watering hole
If you ain't got money, it can't save your soul

(Chorus)
All God's people said amen

(Verse Three)
It's not a sin if it can't make me cry
He's not the devil unless there's fire in his eyes
It ain't the ghost if it don't speak in tongue
It's not a victory 'till the battles been won

(Chorus)

(Verse Four)
Nobody prays unless they lose a son
Don't believe in God till a war's to be won
I know of truth by the lies I've been told
The biggest one is that we're not getting old

(Verse Five)
I know of sin by the things momma prayed
I know of heaven by the line at it's gate
Heard of a kingdom that's not far away
Come drink the water if you want to be saved

(Chorus)
