Pray For The Fish Lyrics

Artist: Randy Travis
Album: Rise and Shine

EVERYBODY GATHERED WHERE THE RIVER RUNS WIDER
AT THE EDGE OF TOWN
TO SEE IF THAT EDDIE LEE VAUGHN BAPTISM
WAS REALLY GONNA GO DOWN
FOLKS BET THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY
THAT WATER WOULDNâ‚¬â„¢T CHANGE A THING
THEY SET THE ODDS AT A HUNDRED TO ONE
HIS SOUL WOULDNâ‚¬â„¢T NEVER COME CLEAN
THEN THE PREACHER SAID
PEOPLE TAKE A MOMENT OR TWO
THERE SOMETHING WE NEED TO DO
PRAY FOR THE FISH
THEY WONâ‚¬â„¢T KNOW WHATâ‚¬â„¢S COMING
WHEN THE SIN STARTS ROLLING OFF THE LIKES OF HIM
LORD BE WITH EM, THEY AINâ‚¬â„¢T DONE NOTHIN'
PLEASE WONT YOU LEAVE THEM JUST A LITTLE BIT â‚¬ËœA ROOM TO SWIM
PRAY FOR THE FISH

WELL THE PREACHER DUCKED EM UNDER
THAT COOL CLEAR WATER
THEN HE DID IT AGAIN
EDDIE CAME UP YELLING
LORD IN HEAVEN HALLEAUH!
Iâ‚¬â„¢M A BRAND NEW MAN
WELL THE WATER GOT TO BUBBLING
SKY GOT TO RUMBLING
AND THE THUNDER BACKED UP THE CHOIR
THE FISH STARTED JUMPINâ‚¬â„¢
IT WAS LIKE THEY WAS SWIMMINâ‚¬â„¢
IN A LAKE OF FIRE
THEN EDDIEâ‚¬â„¢S MOMMA STEPPED OUT OF THE CROWD
AND STARTED YELLING OUT LOUD
PRAY FOR THE FISH
THEY WONâ‚¬â„¢T KNOW WHATâ‚¬â„¢S COMING
WHEN THE SIN STARTS ROLLING
OFF THE LIKES OF HIM
LORD BE WITHâ‚¬â„¢ EM
THEY AINâ‚¬â„¢T DONE NOTHING
PLEASE WONT YOU LEAVE â‚¬ËœEM
JUST A LITTLE BIT â‚¬ËœA ROOM TO SWIM
PRAY FOR THE FISH

HE SAID EVERYBODY CROSS YOUR FINGERS
FOLD YOUR HANDS
PRAY FOR OLEâ‚¬â„¢ EDDIE
BUT BEFORE WE SAY AMEN
PRAY FOR THE FISH

LORD BE WITH â‚¬ËœEM
THEY AINT DONE NOTHIN'
PLEASE WONT YOU LEAVE â‚¬ËœEM
JUST A LITTLE BIT â‚¬ËœA ROOM TO SWIM
PRAY FOR THE FISH
LORD PRAY FOR THE FISH
