[00:20.54]I was livin' me life as an Anglican

[00:25.71]I was livin' me life as an Anglican
[00:28.35]Let me tell you how I changed to a Baptist man
[00:30.94]One night I was walking down Fred'rick street
[00:33.81]Poor and hungry no shoes on me feet
[00:36.05]I passed a door that said "Down with sin"
[00:38.51]It was the smell of food that pull me in
[00:40.93]We are going down Jordan
[00:43.62]We are going down Jordan

[01:03.76]We are going down Jordan
[01:06.44]We are going down Jordan
[01:08.96]Let's walk the heavenly road
[01:11.61]Well the leader walked up and he shook my hand
[01:13.92]Said "I want you to be a holy man"
[01:16.56]Right away I made a big decision
[01:19.25]Me stomach was a growling for this new religion
[01:21.82]I started over to get some food
[01:23.84]When some sisters approached me in a mystic mood
[01:26.73]They dunked me in the water 'bout four five times
[01:29.03]I couldn't see a thing 'cause I was almost blind
[01:31.40]Singing I've got a sword in my hand
[01:36.95]I'm going to use it well
[01:51.58]I was drenched to me skin and I was feeling cold
[01:53.85]But the sight of the food made me take a hold
[01:56.56]The sisters started to break away
[01:58.92]They said "Kneel believers kneel and pray"
[02:01.66]I prayed and I prayed in a new-found style
[02:03.91]In the meantime me taste buds was running wild
[02:06.48]I was about to fall clear out of me seat
[02:08.83]When a man jumped up and said "Before you eat
[02:11.29]You got to mourn children mourn
[02:13.76]You got to mourn children mourn
[02:16.25]And if you want to go to Heaven when you die
[02:18.86]You got to mourn children mourn
[02:40.97]Well before I baptized I had plenty pain
[02:43.43]Now I find myself a free man again
[02:45.84]Well before I baptized I had plenty pain
[02:48.33]Now I find myself a free man again
[02:50.74]Don't talk 'bout the leaders they treat me good
[02:53.39]Plenty sweet oil and plenty food
[02:55.96]Brother it was then that I realized
[02:58.51]Ev'ry man on earth should be baptized
