Six Mile Water Lyrics[Verse 1]
I had a praying mama
She prayed for her girl
She'd see me in her dreams
And blow a kiss across the world
Swearing like a sailor
Laughing like a child
She could tease my hand to Jesus
Just had to sit awhile, sit awhile
[Chorus]
Learning to be my mother's daughter again
Every Sunday morning I hear her voice in every hymn
Learning to be my mother's daughter again
'Cause every road leads
'Cause every road leads
Six mile water
Six mile watеr
Six mile water
Every road lеads
Six mile water
Six mile water
Six mile water
Every road leads
[Verse 2]
Out beneath the post oak
And all that Texas sunshine
Catching fish in the Brazos
I was picking muscadines
Rain drummin' on the tin roof
Of my big mama's old house, mm
Runnin' wild and runnin' free
'Cause folks were lookin' out
[Chorus]
Learning to be my mother's daughter again
Every Sunday morning I hear her voice in every hymn
Learning to be my mother's daughter again
'Cause every road leads
Every road leads
To six mile water
Six mile water
Six mile water
Every road leads
Six mile water
Six mile water
Six mile water
Every road leads
Six mile water
Six mile water
Six mile water
Every road leads
Six mile water
Six mile water
Six mile water
[Outro]
Six mile water
I'm your daughter
Traveled so many miles away
But I'm home now
No more roamin' now
Six mile water
Your daughter's here to stay
Six mile water
I'm your daughter
I traveled so many miles away
But I'm home now
No more roamin' now
Six mile water
Your daughter's here to stay
Six mile water
I'm your daughter
I traveled so many miles away
But I'm home now
No more roamin' now
Six mile water
Your daughter's here to stay
