lyrics

06. water into wine

woke up sunday morning, knockin' at my door
two well dressed ladies wanna talk about the lord
I said I need salvation - but not the prayin' kind
said I got a little water
can you help me turn it into wine

telephone's ringing offering advice
said give us all your money, you'll get eternal life
well, I'm already living - I do it all the time
but I got me some water
how much to turn it into wine

walking past the homeless, down on their luck
pulled out all my money, gave 'em all a buck
then I asked the preacher,
where's their right to the divine
he said we give them water
but we get to keep the wine

you say you got your freedom, god loves everyone
if god is all protecting, how come you need a gun
I just shrug my shoulders,
smile & grin at these times
cause I got a lot of water
gonna turn it into wine
