Текст песни
John the Baptist in the wildness
Camel hair coat around his chest
Miles and miles people heard the call
They come round to see him one and all
Down in the Jordan
Wash your sins
Come round child and wade right in
They asked John are you the good Lord's son?
He said
No sir, no I ain't the one
But I know the one who can get it done
One sunny day there came a man
John walked up and shook his hand
Lord please tell me what I should do?
Cause I ain't worthy to tie your shoes
Down in the Jordan
Wash your sins
Come round child and wade right in
They asked John are you the chosen one?
He said
No sir, no I ain't the one
But I know the one who can get it done
Down in the water, he laid his head
Sky split open and the good Lord said
In my son I'm very pleased
People in the crowd hit their knees
They went down in the Jordan
Wash your sins
Come round child and wade right in
They asked John are you the good Lords son?
He said
No sir, no I ain't the one
But I know the one who can get it done
No sir, no I ain't the one
But I know the one who can get it done
