lyrics

Oh let's reach for the sky
Let's go sky high
Seeking the adventure in our lives
Never turning back
Looking for the cracks
That made life a boring wait for the train to death

Go wade in the water if you don't have a boat
Go wade in the water if you don't have a ship
Go wade in the water if you don't have a raft
Go wade in the water

I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them indians
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them cowboys
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them black men
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them sinners
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm

Oh let's keep walking strong
Barefeet on the ground
What's a little pain to gain all the things that you've found?
Walking miles on cole
Burning feet and soul
If I give up who will carry my body to goal?

Go wade in the water if you don't have a boat
Go wade in the water if you don't have a ship
Go wade in the water if you don't have a raft
Go wade in the water

I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them indians
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them cowboys
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them black men
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them sinners
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm

Go wade in the water if you don't have a boat
Go wade in the water if you don't have a ship
Go wade in the water if you don't have a raft
Go wade in the water

I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them indians
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them cowboys
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them black men
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
I'm a traveller I'm gonna meet them sinners
Make them my lovers, dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm
Dance to the rhythm
