Do You Want to Go to Heaven - Re-Recorded by T.G. Sheppard Lyrics

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?"
