[Verse 1]
Summer sixteen, spent that week
Wishin' on a shootin' star
That ferris wheel town with a merry-go-round
And we played bumper cars
And we were all but in love
I could have sworn we were
That night tide comin' up
We were divin' in head first to the
[Chorus]
Holy water, slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen, mm
That brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me like I think of her?
Everytimе I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water; holy watеr
[Verse 2]
Bet you're married now, girl
Making somebody's world
A little slice of heaven
I'm a guitar man
With a travelin' band
Heading down to Destin
But I stopped in tonight
At the Florabama bar
With shoes in my hand, walkin' that sand
And I watched a shootin' star over
[Chorus]
Holy water, slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen, mm
That brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me like I think of her?
Everytime I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water; holy water
[Outro]
Holy water, slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen, mm
That brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me like I think of her?
Everytime I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water; holy water
