Take me to the water
Take me to the water
Take me to the water
To be baptized

None but the righteous
None but the righteous
None but the righteous
Shall be saved

So take me to the water
Take me to the water
Take me to the water
To be, to be baptized

I’m going back home, going back home
Gonna stay here no longer
I’m going back home, going back home
To be baptized
