Текст песни Preaching Up a Storm (Mel McDaniel) с переводом

They were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore

Singing Peace In The Valley and preaching up a storm

There was a crowd gathered down by the river

Where me and Benny Thompson used to play

I wondered if they had enough a water

To wash old Lester Harper’s sins away

Cause I heard Miss Ida whisper he’s too lost to save

Well they would sing and it would rain and it was frightening

Some things are hard to understand when you’re eight

I can still hear the thunder and see the lightning

When Preacher Hayes raised his hands to pray

I could feel my body tremble cause I was so afraid

Yeah they were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore

Singing Peace In The Valley and preaching up a storm

I was there but I could barely hear the sermon

I was scared and didn’t care to get up close

I heard him tell 'em something was a burning

And then he shouted something about a ghost

And when they walked down in the water

Sister Harper hollered please don’t let him go

Well they were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore

Singing Peace In The Valley and preaching up a storm

They were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore

Singing Peace In The Valley and preaching up a storm

They were down by the river on that Lincoln County shore

Singing Peace In The Valley and preaching up a storm
