E D A E
[Verse 1]
E D
Somewhere inside those back Florida pines
A E
theres a town with a Choctaw name
E D
Theres a little white church and a real tight curve
A E
on the edge of a field full of grain
E D
Yeah the preacher was a stand up man shakin' hands
A E
every Sunday mornin' at the door
E D
He loved his congregation but he ran an operation
A E
sellin' more than the word of the Lord
E D A E
and he called it holy water
E D A E
he called it holy water, yeah
[Verse 2]
E D
He bought a brand new Lincoln, had a couple Deacons thinkin'
A E
it was more than he could afford
E D
They knew somethin' was up when he was shuttin' his trunk
A E
at the church around one in the morn'
E D
When he was out of sight, they snuck around inside
A E
and found a door leadin' under the ground
E D
They popped the lock on the latch, walked down
A E
and flashed their lights and guess what they found
E D A E
Cellar full of holy water
[Chorus]
E D
No one knows where it comes from buddy,
A E
but you can find it anywhere from Bama to Kentucky
E D
Got the whole southeast side of the country
A E
lining up to pay top dollar
E D
Jaw tops twist when the sun starts settin'
A E
burns like crazy, get ya high like heaven
E D A E
and Lord have mercy if they knew where they were gettin with that holy water
[Verse 3]
E D
Well the Deacons pulled up to his house with a truck
A E
with the proof all crystal clear
E D
He tried to play it off, but he knew he was caught
A E
so he said brothers listen here
E D
You can call the law or you can keep a secret
A E
I'll cut you in and we can call it even
E D
Next Sunday mornin' 'round ten o'clock
A E
there was two more Lincolns in the parking lot
[Solo]
E D A E
E D A G E
[Chorus]
E D
No one knows where it comes from buddy,
A E
but you can find it anywhere from Bama to Kentucky
E D
Got the whole southeast side of the country
A E
lining up to pay top dollar
E D
Jaw tops twist when the sun starts settin'
A E
burns like crazy, get ya high like heaven
E D A E
and Lord have mercy if they knew where they were gettin with that holy water
[Outro]
E
Now there's new stained glass
D
new pews from the back
A
nobody even asked no questions
E D
and a sign out front with some letters
A E
readin' John chapter two verse one thru eleven.
