He WalkedOn Water Lyrics



He wore starched, white shirts, buttoned at the neck,
and he'd sit in the shade and watch the chickens peck.
And his teeth were gone, but what the heck?
I thought that he walked on water.

He said he was a cowboy when he was young.
He could handle a rope and he was good with a gun.
And my mama's daddy was his oldest son,
and I thought that he walked on water.

CHORUS
If the story's told, only heaven knows,
But his hat seemed to me like an old halo.
And though his wings, they were never seen.
I thought that he walked on water.

He'd tie a cork to the end of a mop,
and said, "Son, here's a pony, keep 'er at a trot."
And I'd ride in circles while he laughed alot,
Then I'd flop down beside him.

And he was ninety years old in sixty-three,
and I loved him, and he loved me,
And lord, I cried the day he died,
'cause I thought that he walked on water.

CHORUS
