Cole Williams--
"Oh, you gotta wade
Ah, you got a wade
Ay, in the water
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
Who's that young girl dressed in red
Wade in the water
Must be the children that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water, wade in the water children
Wade in the water,
God's gonna trouble the water
See that man all dressed in white
God's gonna trouble the water
He looks like one 'a them Israelites
God 's gonna trouble the water
And see that man all dressed in lace
God 's gonna trouble the water
He looks like a man that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the water
You gotta wade in the water, ...
Wade in that water, children
God 's troubling that water
Look over yonder
What do you see
God 's going to trouble the water
The Holy Ghost coming over me
If you don't believe
Just put me down in Jordan's sea
You gotta wade in ...
And wade in that==
YOu got a wade
God 's troublin' the water
Cause God 's troublin' the water.
