Old Country Baptizing
Recorded by Emmylou Harris and Gram Parsons
Written by Carl Story
[Verse 1]
GTraveling down a country road Con one SundaGy morn
I Saw a crowd gathered at the creeA7k near a little counD7try farm
GI thought that I'd move closer in,C so I might see anGd hear
Why they looked so happy there D7without a thing to Gfear
[Chorus]
GWas a good old country baptizing CI was at that Gday
They'd preach awhile and sing awhile then they'A7d all kneel down and pD7ray
GGod's spirit seemed to fill the air and Cevery soul was Gmeek
At a good old country baptizing D7down at the Gcreek
[Verse 2]
GThen a low and gentle voice iCnvited me comeG in
We're so glad to have you here A7welcome now my fD7riend
GWe've held a great revival sir Cup at the church all wGeek
Now we're having a baptizing D7down at the Gcreek
[Chorus]
GWas a good old country baptizing CI was at that Gday
They'd preach awhile and sing awhile then they'A7d all kneel down and pD7ray
GGod's spirit seemed to fill the air and Cevery soul was Gmeek
At a good old country baptizing D7down at the Gcreek
[Verse 3]
GWell I'm so glad that I could be aCmong that happy Gthrong
Watch them wash their sins away wA7hile they right their wD7rongs
GSeems that you could hear them say with a Csmile upon their Gface
Lord I'm ready now to move along D7to my resting Gplace
[Chorus]
GWas a good old country baptizing CI was at that Gday
They'd preach awhile and sing awhile then they'A7d all kneel down and pD7ray
GGod's spirit seemed to fill the air and Cevery soul was Gmeek
At a good old country baptizing D7down at the Gcreek
