| I believe it's called: "And It Stoned Me" Half a mile from the county fair and the rain keep pouring down. Me and Billy standing there with a silver half a crown. Hands are full of a fishing rod and the tackle on our backs. We just stood there getting wet with our backs against the fence. Oh, the water, oh, the water, oh, the water, hope it don't rain all day. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like jellyroll, and it stoned me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like going home and it stoned me. Then the rain let up and the sun came up and we were getting dry. Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by. So we jumped right in and the driver grinned and he dropped us up the road. We looked at the swim and we jumped right in, not to mention fishing poles. Oh, the water, oh, the water, oh, the water, let it run all over me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like jellyroll, and it stoned me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like going home and it stoned me. On the way back home we sang a song but our throats were getting dry. Then we saw the man across the road with the sunshine in his eyes. Well, he lived all alone in his own little home with a great big gallon jar. There were bottles too, one for me and you and he said, ‘Hey, there you are.’ Oh, the water, oh, the water, oh, the water, get it myself from the mountain stream. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like jellyroll, and it stoned me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like going home and it stoned me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like jellyroll, and it stoned me. And it stoned me to my soul, stoned me just like going home and it stoned me. Hope this helped... I think my favorite Van Morrison Song is "Tupelo Honey". |
