G D A D And I said ?Yeah, just lead me on? G D ?Take my hand, can you feel that feelin?? G D A D And I said ?Yes, just lead me on Verse 2: It was the hottest day of summer And our final high school dance was just about over I was old enough for the taste of love when boys turn in to men And I?ll never forget, I remember it yet The taste of that clear pure water But the preacher?s words I barely heard as sweet Bonnie Lou gave in She said Chorus ***Step up a half-step*** Verse 3: It was a lonely night in August She was sittin? at the end of the bar when I saw her And with a little wine and a little time, she would be a prize to win And I?ll never forget, I remember it yet The taste of that clear pure water But that preacher?s words could not be heard when she whispered ?come on in? She said Chorus
