Do You Wanna Go to Heaven

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 I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water And that preacher's words still fill my head and I hear them now and then He said, '€œDo you wanna go to heaven?" And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on" '€œTake my hand, can you feel that feelin'?'€ And I said, '€œYeah 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 I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water But the preacher's words I've barely heard, as sweet Bonnie Lou gave in She said, '€œDo you wanna go to heaven?" And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on" '€œTake my hand, can you feel that feelin'?'€ And I said, '€œYeah 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 I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water But that preacher's words could not be heard Wen she whispered, come on in She said, '€œDo you wanna go to heaven?" And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on" '€œTake my hand, can you feel that feelin'?'€ And I said, '€œYeah just lead me on'€ She said, '€œDo you wanna go to heaven?" And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on" '€œTake my hand, can you feel that feelin'?'€ And I said, '€œYeah just lead me on'€ She said, '€œDo you wanna go to heaven?"
