Music in the Water Lyrics

Momma said, "Wash your hands

Go and fix your hair

The South is watching carefully

A long dress you will wear"

I said, "Momma

Dress won't save me

God is who I trust"

Winds of change a blowing

Stirring up the dust

Oh the wanderlust

A simple house in Alabama

Held a quiet daughter

Hear the river running

There's music in the water

My Dad said "You stay close

I know what is best

Save up all your money

Settle down and make a nest"

I said "Dad, God is calling

To the city, I will go

I don't have the answers yet

But God is in control"

It's time for me to go

A simple house in Alabama

Held a quiet daughter

Hear the river running

There's music in the water

Go to school, go to church

Life was on repeat

Everyone seemed happy

But that river's running free

Go to school, go to church

Life was on repeat

Everyone seemed happy

But that river's running free

A simple house in Alabama

Held a quiet daughter

Hear the river running

There's music in the water

A simple house in Alabama

Held a quiet daughter

Hear the river running

There's music in the water
