Someone draw the water, Water
Cool and calm black water, Water
Someone draw the water, Cool and calm, black water
From the banks of the Salkehatchie River
Someone bring the water, Water
Ancient, blessed water, Water
Someone bring the water, Ancient, blessed water
From the banks of the Salkehatchie River
River of life, River of dreams
Carry me back to a place I’ve never seen
Help me remember those moments so tender
Near the banks of the Salkehatchie River
Someone pour the water, Water
Storytelling water, Water
And we will make ourselves some stew
That’s just what we’re gonna do
First you add some stories, one or two
Some from me and some from you
Throw ‘em in a big ol’ pot
Tell me now just what you got
Salkehatchie Stew, Salkehatchie Stew
Little bit of me and a little bit of you
Oh, We’ll pour in the water, Cool and calm, black water
And we’ll make ourselves some Salkehatchie Stew
We’ll bring it to a low country boil
Add some spice of life, half a cup or so
Stir it ’round and ’round ’til the stories blend
Serve it up to your family and your friends
Salkehatchie Stew, Salkehatchie Stew
Little bit of me and a little bit of you
Oh, We’ll pour in the water, Cool and calm, black water
And we’ll make ourselves some Salkehatchie Stew
