The *****man Family - Looking for a Place to Cross Lyrics
Said, Lay me down upon the cool green mossMy eyes can see that river flowing through the Promised Land.I’m just looking for a shallow place to crossI’m just testing out the water; I’m just waiting for the tideI can see my friends a waving to me from the other sideI can’t understand why you’re so sad; I just can’t see the lossI’m walking up and down the banks of that Jordan RiverLooking for a place to cross!The old man took his rest with his Bible on his chestHe shivered as he clutched me by the handI just stepped into the water, and it chills me to the boneBut the sun is shining on the Promised Land!Now, when I die, when I bid this world goodbye,And they come to lower this old body down,Now don’t you weep, son, don’t you cry for me
