Thomas, B.J. - Do You Wanna Go To Heaven Lyrics
It was the hottest day of August
All of us were down by the banks of the Paint Rock River
I was next in line to be baptized
At the innocent age of ten
The taste of that clear pure water
And that preacher's words still fill my head
And I hear them now and then he said
Do you wanna go to heaven
And I said yeah just lead me on
Take my hand can you feel that feeling
And I said yes just lead me on
It was the hottest day of summer
I was old enough for the taste of love
When boys turn into men
And I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But the preacher's words I barely heard
As sweet Bonnie Lou gave in she said
It was a lonely night in August
She was sitting at the end of the bar when I saw her
And with a little wine and an little time
She would be a prize to win
Now I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But that preacher's words could not be heard
When she whispered come on in she said

I had the pleasure to meet him in the 90s and he was very nice we talked for almost 15 minutes
Every time I try and talk to someone famous, I get tongue tied. I don't do it anymore. Too embarrassing! Like T. G. Sheppard a lot.
That guy has one of the most beautiful and smooth voice that I've ever heard!
Him and Jonny Cash, all day!!a
Memories of my childhood!! Love it ! My dad loved him
Proudly going to HELL
Why would you go proudly to HELL?
Early 80s I drove a bus at Intercontinental Airport and met him there. He had a beautiful tour bus and showed it to me... Quite a handsome man, and a bit of a flirt. I remember our 4 minutes together... LOL
AWESOME SINGER.

Oh man the way his deep sultry voice washed over my ears sent shivers all the way down.
Lol Outstanding/Good Music 🎶
Lord we need more of this ....😃
Amen, I agree!
This is my favorite song that he does
Wishing my dad and uncles were alive! Brings back memories
They are alive waiting on the rest of us to join them in the new world...😀
Love this song. My mom listened to it over and over
It was the hottest day of August
All of us were down by the banks of the Paint Rock River
I was next in line to be baptized at the innocent age of ten
And I? ll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water
And that preacher? s words still fill my head and I hear them now and then
He said,? Do you wanna go to heaven?"
And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on"
? Take my hand, can you feel that feelin?
And I said,? Yeah just lead me on?
It was the hottest night of summer
And our final high school dance were just about over
I was old enough for the taste of love when boys turn into men
And I? ll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water
But the preacher? s words I've barely heard, as sweet Bonnie Lou gave in She said,? Do you wanna go to heaven?"
And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on"
? Take my hand, can you feel that feelin?
And I said,? Yeah just lead me on?
It was a lonely night in August
She was sittin? at the end of the bar when I saw her
And with the little wine and a little time she would be a prize to win
Now I? ll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that clear, pure water
But that preacher? s words could not be heard
Wen she whispered, come on in
She said,? Do you wanna go to heaven?"
And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on"
? Take my hand, can you feel that feelin?
And I said,? Yeah just lead me on? She said,? Do you wanna go to heaven?"
And I said, "Yeah, just lead me on"
? Take my hand, can you feel that feelin?
And I said,? Yeah just lead me on?
She said,? Do you wanna go to heaven?"

Hey Folks...This is REAL country music by a great artist....ROLL TIDE !!!
you must be from Alabama! !!!....my sister and brother in law lives in Alabama! !!....all I hear about is roll tide!!....and see pictures of the elephant! !!!....the live in Andalusia, if you know where that is.....and my nephew lives in mobile, if you know where that town is??..... I live in ft.worth texas, people here like football.....but there not near as gung-ho about it like the people in Alabama! !!!
They just don't make the music they did in the late 70's and early 80's!
Bonnie Lu gave in!
Still alive it's believable HAHA
this song went to #1 on the country charts in 1980!!!
