Summer sixteen
Spent that week
Wishin' on a shootin' star
That ferris wheel town
With a merry-go-round
And we played bumper cars
And we were all, but in love
I could have sworn we were (sworn we were)
That night tide comin' up
We were divin' in head first, to the
Holy water
Slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen
Mm, that brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me
Like I think of her
Every time I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water
Holy water
Bet you're married now, girl
Making somebody's world
A little slice of heaven
I'm a guitar man
With a travelin' band
Heading down to Destin
But I stopped in tonight
At the florabama bar
With shoes in my hand
Walkin' that sand
And I watched a shootin' star, over
Holy water
Slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen
Mm, that brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me
Like I think of her
Every time I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water
Holy water
Holy water
Slowly rollin'
In that Alabama breeze
Bring those waves in
Be that amen
Mm, that brings her back to me
The preacher's daughter
Back in Georgia
Air brushed t-shirt in a drawer
Does she think of me
Like I think of her
Every time I'm standing on the shore
Of holy water
Holy water
