When the roll was called up yonder I hope you see me there It's in the water It's where you came from It's in the water It's where you came from
When the crowd begin to wonder And they cry to see your face It's in the water It's in the story Where you came from the sons and daughters In all their glory it's gonna shape them And when they clash they come together And start a-risin' just drink the water Where you came from Where you came from
You're the rose it was called from yonder Never sold yourself away It's in the water It's in the story Where you came from your sons and daughters In all their glory it's gonna shape them And when they crash they come together And start a-risin' just drink the water Where you came from Where you came from
[It's in the water, it's where you came from] Where you came from [It's in the water, it's where you came from] Where you came from
And when they crash they come together And start a-risin' just drink the water Where you came from Where you came from
