This is an old Spiritual that I heard Happy Traum sing and pick and I would like the words please. Jeep man

Boy, there are a lot of songs with this title, out there. I have found some really neat sites, though, as a consequence of looking for it. As I didn't have time to search them all, I will list them for you:

Melody Lane a great site with TONS of links to their customised midi singalong songbooks. It takes a minute or so to load but is well worth it. Scroll down for the spirituals section.

Free Christian Sheet Music LOTS of links

Spirituality, Slavery, & Harriet Ann Jacobs very interesting with a link to some lyrics of old spirituals.

Good luck. Glad to see you got your cookie back.

I just wrote to Happy and asked if he'd ever recorded and released the OP's request. I'll post if and when.

"Wade on the water"
is a mondegreen for "Just walk on by wait on the corner"

At a San Francisco concert by legendary blues guitarist Harvey Mandel, I called out several requests for "Walk on the Water". Eventually, Harvey glared at me and said, "It's 'Wade in the Water'!" He didn't add "...stupid", but it was certainly implied.
