Donna Ulisse – Levi Stone lyrics
Levi Stone lived by the gospel
He taught his child to do the same
So when his son took sick that winter
He knew he'd be fine once springtime came
The boy grew weaker by the hour
But Levi Stone never lost faith
He told his wife no county doctor
Quit your cryin' woman, kneel down and pray
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
Death came hard in fourteen sunsets
A woman's wail tore through the sky
And Levi Stone sat by the bedside
Lost and alone, betrayed by God that night
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
Sixteen years left Levi bitter
He'd lost his son, he lost his wife
The voices whisper, "I'm cold and thirsty"
Well, he lost his mind that winter night
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
He taught his child to do the same
So when his son took sick that winter
He knew he'd be fine once springtime came
The boy grew weaker by the hour
But Levi Stone never lost faith
He told his wife no county doctor
Quit your cryin' woman, kneel down and pray
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
Death came hard in fourteen sunsets
A woman's wail tore through the sky
And Levi Stone sat by the bedside
Lost and alone, betrayed by God that night
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
Sixteen years left Levi bitter
He'd lost his son, he lost his wife
The voices whisper, "I'm cold and thirsty"
Well, he lost his mind that winter night
[Chorus]
Papa, please, a drink of water
Wipe the fever from my brow
Tell these angels all around me
They need to put me down
Papa, you tell them I'm in God's hands now
