Baptized By Texas

Biography:

From a tradition of music rooted in heritage and home, honesty and hurt, sorrow and sunsets, emerge Lost Immigrants.

They are country music. They are rock.
They are saints. They are sinners.
They are idiots, and they are fools.
They are Texas Music.

This is their story. These are their songs.

The Lost Immigrants formed in fall 2004 with the birth of small collection of songs and an Americana music project. That collaboration led to weekly rehearsals, monthly gigs and frequent trips down Texas highways.

[Verse 1]
D A
Think I'll roll down to the river
G A
Where the water's so cold it'll make you shiver
D A
And the cypress trees gotta bend their knees
G
To fit under that Texas sky

[Verse 2]
D A
Gonna grab some carne asada
G A
Shiner beer, I'll drink a whole lotta
D A
Watch my legs sit and cook like eggs
G
On this tube I'm sitting on

[Chorus]
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna let the cold water
Bm
Wash it all away to nada
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna get my heart clean
Bm
Gonna let it sing
A G
And in the morning I'll be feeling alright
A G D A G A D A G
I'm gonna get baptized by Texas tonight

[Verse 3]
D A
Garner State Park and the green, green grass
G A
Gonna cook some dogs, don't think they'll last
D A
Sit and watch the stars come alive
G
under a big forgotten night

[Verse 4]
D A
Down the river up around the bend
G A
There's a choir singing like its got no end
D A G
Singing Hallelujah, singing Jesus come again

[Chorus]
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna let the cold water
Bm
Wash it all away to nada
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna get my heart clean
Bm
Gonna let it sing
A G
And in the morning I'll be feeling alright
A G D A G A D A G
I'm gonna get baptized by Texas tonight

[Instrumental]
D A G A D A G

[Verse 5]
D A
And the meeting's over we take our place
G A
'Round the old campfire and we turn to face
D A G
The last trace of day that somehow slipped away

[Chorus]
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna let the cold water
Bm
Wash it all away to nada
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna get my heart clean
Bm
Gonna let it sing
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna let the cold water
Bm
Wash it all away to nada
A G
Yeah, I'm gonna get my heart clean
Bm
Gonna let it sing
A G
And in the morning I'll be feeling just a little bit fine
A G D A G A
I'm gonna get baptized by Texas tonight
D A G
Texas tonight
