three feet of water
Got a whole lot of years And a whole lot of pain And it all got me here Where the river meets the clay Rewindin' through my past Tryin to find some good But I can't seem to see What mama always could  And that sun is shinin' down On all my darker days They're comin' to me now As I hear the preacher say In the name of the Son and the Father Can I really leave it all In three feet of water?  I can't unbreak the laws Straighten out the rules I've bent Take the broken dreams and hearts Make 'em all whole again I been carryin' around All the messes that I've made But a few more steps from now They'll all be washed away  And that sun is shinin' down On all my darker days They're comin' to me now As I hear the preacher say In the name of the Son and the Father Who'd've thought I could leave it all Three feet of water, washin' over me Amazing Grace the choir sings And now I know what mercy's all about  And that sun is shinin' down And all my darker days They're nowhere to be found All that preacher had to say Was in the name of the Sun and the Father Who'd've thought I could leave it all? You took my cross so I could leave it all In three feet of water Hmm, in three feet of water, hmm  So, it's that simple, huh?
