We Are Goin' Down Jordan Lyrics - Singles - Les Humphries Singers

We are goin' down Jordan 

We are goin' down Jordan 

We are goin' down Jordan 

We're gonna walk the heavenly road. 

We are goin' down Jordan... 

I was living my life as an Anglican. 

Let me tell you how I changed to a baptiste man. 

I was living my life as an Anglican. 

Let me tell you how I changed to a baptiste man. 

One night I was walking down Frederick Street 

Poor and hungry 

no shoes on my feet. 

I passed the door that said: "Down with sin" ! 

It was the smell of food that pulled me in. 

We are goin' down Jordan... 

Well 

the leader woke up and shook my hand 

said:"Iwant you to be a holy man" 

Right away I made a quick decision 

my stomach was groaning for this true religion. 

I started over to get some food 

when some of my sisters approached me in a mysteric mood. 

Duck me in the water for five times 

I couldn't see a thing I cause I was almost blind. 

We are goin' down Jordan... 

You got to moan 

children 

moan 

you got to moan 

children 

moan 

and if you want to go 

to heaven when you die 

you got to moan 

children 

moan.
