Garden Hose Gospel

Backyard baked in a five o'clock sun Cicadas loud and the sprinklers on Bare feet running through the patchy grass Whole day heavy till the water splashed Mama said don't soak your shirt Too late now and it don't hurt We got a garden hose gospel Cold spray shining in the July heat Bare feet dancing By the porch light Laughing till the hard week leaves No stained glass No choir robes Just a little wild and free We got a garden hose gospel You jumped in grinning By the fence gate latch Caught me clean with a cold backsplash Radio low by the screen door frame Whole yard lit when you said my name No big town, no big show Just water like water We got a garden hose gospel Cold spray shining in the July heat Bare feet dancing By the porch light Laughing till the hard week leaves No stained glass No choir robes Just a little wild and free We got a garden hose gospel Cold spray shining in the July heat Bare feet dancing By the porch light By the porch light Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold back Caught me clean with a cold front Caught me clean with a cold front
