Listen to my words 'cause I speak of rivers
Some may be shallow and some may be deeper and deeper and deeper my brother man
Since we pan and scans the land for what he can
Hoping that it might strike gold
Wading in the water in search of the soul
To find what you seek
The valleys and the peaks
Open up your ears to the grooves and beats and be complete
Now the water's deep
You see dancing is rejoicing
Now people make some noise and
Dive into the water let it splash across your face
Don't you stop the party and don't you lose the faith
Keep on going on
Moving on son
Converge upon your urge and be submerged in the funk
We all come to the river 'cause the water brings growth
Let the Lord provide it
Baby can you stroke?
The style and the sound of reunion
Good food good jams is our communion
Down at the river the soul is wet
Take a dip and revive yourselfRevival! Revival! Revival! Revival!
Revival! Revival! Revival!
Going to the...Revival! Revival! Revival! Revival!
Revival! Revival! Revival!
Going to the...Get into the water where we're having a revival
If you don't learn to do then tell me what is your survival?
Chance is dancing the fellowship is dope
The water is too shallow then gallows and ropes await me
I got to keep on moving upstream
That's where the party's at
It's the Baptism and the swing
A brother man's dream
The river must be phat
Now tell me what is wrong with that?
It make some people say
Psychoalphadiscobeta
Brother man you got to take a dip into the water
Psychoalphadiscobeta
Sister girl you too can take a dip into the water
Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadooloop
My troop we can take it strong to the hoop
An old style revival the tradition's respected
Old ladies putting up a finger as they exit
You guessed it
It's gonna bring you closer to the self
The power of the river if you can hold you breath
And see the reality of spirituality
Positive individuality
Hear me now we wade and splash and love and laugh
and eat and greet and walk the path of rhythm we're with Him
The river is cool so we go keep this revival going
Sing childrenRevival! Revival! Revival! Revival!
Revival! Revival! Revival!
Going to the...Revival! Revival! Revival! Revival!
Revival! Revival! Revival!
Going to the...Now um, we have gathered here today
To cleanse our minds and wash the BS away
To gain strength for another day
To get into the river I figure the must play to make the crowd sway
Throw "ho"s and "hey"s
Shake our bootys
Our duty is to be here to stay
Cause people we are in it for survival
So won't you come and join me at the river
At the Revival!I see little children eating watermelon
Elderly story telling
Ruff necks scrapping yelling
Deacons and preaching
And hip-hop beats and
Funky aqua boogie
We could be achieving
Groovy salvation
The soul is in the house
Everyone's dancing and hanging out
Brother's clocking bank but we got to have the wisdom
To make it thru the eye of the needle
And when I make it thru I will be dancing and singing rejoicing and voicing my opinion
Dominion over all on the Earth
Baby work
The brother's came first Africa the birth
If can not do it on the Nile
Then we'll go to the Mississippi
Down in Memphis, Tennessee we travel like a gypsy
And don't worry about the neighbors calling 5-Oh
Nobody's going stop this Revival!Revival! Revival! Revival! Revival!
