Everybody gathered where the river runs wider At the edge of town To see that Eddie Lee Vaughn baptism Was really gonna go down Folks bet their hard earned money That water wouldn't change a thing They set the odds at a hundred to one His soul wouldn't never come clean Then the preacher said People take a moment or two There's something we need to do Pray for the dish They won't know what's coming When the sin starts rolling off the likes of him Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin' Please won't you leave them just a little bit a room to swim Pray for the fish Well the preacher ducked him under That cool clear water Then he did it again Eddie came up yelling Lord in Heaven Hallalujah! I'm a brand new man Well the water got to bubbling Sky got to rumbling And the thunder backed up the choir The fish started jumpin' It was like they was swimmin' In a lake of fire Then Eddie's momma stepped out of the crowd And started yelling out loud Pray for the dish They won't know what's coming When the sin starts rolling off the likes of him Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin' Please won't you leave them just a little bit a room to swim Pray for the fish He said everybody cross your fingers Fold your hands Pray for Ole Eddie But before we say amen Pray for the fish Lord be with em, they ain't done nothin' Please won't you leave them just a little bit a room to swim Pray for the fish Lord pray for the fish |
