lyrics

Cane Creek was so silent. It had just rained for days.
Nobody could be found – not in the glens or in the glades.
The houses were all empty now – the screaming was all gone,
I was just passing through, and tried to continue on.

Took a look ‘round Crabtree’s place – just about mid day
No one to be found in afternoon heat so I continued on my way
Got to the riverside and sat right beneath the shade.
Saw Boggs’ and his followers all at the Promenade.

Follow me.
Follow me.
Cecil Boggs and his church all at the Promenade.

Cleanse your minds and souls now for God has spoken true
Alan’s heresy has brought a curse upon us too.
Let’s baptize ourselves once more in this cleansing creek,
And revel in the rapture that we all should always seek.

Step right up and fill your cup with Jesus’ blood like wine
Take part in this holy Communion and make your life a sign
For God’s grace upon this wretched world now hold your head up high
Cleanse yourself of your mortal signs lest we should all die.

Follow me.
Follow me.
Cecil Boggs and his church all at the Promenade.

Follow me.
Follow me.
Cecil Boggs and his church all at the Promenade.

Alan’s smut’s put us in a rut and it’s time to set him straight
Let’s burn down his house and God will put him in his place
Approach the water now and confess your sins to me
I’ll baptize you all and a watery shawl will protect us from the heat

I’m a lusty sinner while his eyes were on the girls
His words spoke peace and harmony but his mind saw different worlds
And more than his prayer did stick to his mind did her floral dress
He thought about it every night before he laid down to rest

Follow me.
Follow me.
Cecil Boggs and his church all at the Promenade.
