Album: Bible Stories
Well, you might have heard some rumors
And I don't know what they said
But there's a wild man in the desert
Pourin' water on people's heads
You need to go and see him
No matter what else you do
'Cause he's filled with the Holy Spirit
And the spirit of Elijah too
I know because I've seen him
And what the angel Gabriel said
About the wild man in the desert
Pourin' water on people's heads
His dad was Zechariah
His mama was Lizzie Lou
And Johnny Boy was born to them
When they were about a hundred and two
He moved into the desert
To a little ramshackle shed
Until he started preachin'
And pourin' water on people's heads
And when he started preachin'
Folks would stop and stare
At his belt made out of leather
His clothes of camel's hair
He'd never take a taste of wine
Or any fermented drink
But when a guy eats bugs and honey
It'll make you stop and think
That he is just a crazy fool
Standin' in a river bed
This wild man in the desert
Pourin' water on people's heads
We thought that when he started to talk
We'd seen the promised day
That Johnny Boy was the Messiah
But this is what he had to say:
There's a man that's comin' after me
More powerful than I
And the thongs of His sandals
I'm not worthy to untie
I'll baptize you with water but
You might as well take a shower
'Cause He'll baptize you with the Holy Spirit
He'll baptize you with fire
