Originally one of the 'Songs of freedom'
(Wade in the water) was sung by way of instruction to escaping slaves .. travelling along the water's edge or across a body of water, would throw dogs and their keepers off the scent.
Wade in the water,
Wade in the water children.
Wade in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
Who's all those children all dressed in Red?
God's gonna trouble the water.
Must be the ones that Moses led.
God's gonna trouble the water.
What are those children all dressed in White?
God's gonna trouble the water.
Must be the ones of the Israelites.
God's gonna trouble the water.
Who are these children all dressed in Blue?
God's gonna trouble the water.
Must be the ones that made it through.
God's gonna trouble the water.

this has to one of the most breath taking videos iv ever seen there are so many styles of dance contained in it that were a head of there time. i remember wigan casino an the dance moves there. thank you for sharing this. R.I.P to Marlena a great loss.
Absolutely spectacular dancing (and song). The globe really needs to see more shows like this in the media --- brings a big smile to people's faces -- not those doom and gloom news stories. Wow, this was so good !!!
Saw her at Ronnie Scotts last week, opened the show with this. Fantastic performance from a 70 year old!
That dance at the beginning is epic! Love it!
That was the Eleanor Powell, she was a actress and dancer between the 1930s and 1940s. There is an IMDB and Wikipedia page about her. The woman was so good she made Fred Astaire sweat to keep up.
so good. Nothing left to say.
I've Always Prefered The Ramsey Lewis Version 😃 & Now The Travelers Version But I LOVE The Dancing On This Video! ❣
what a voice what a song !this has it all I keep on coming back to it!
That dude in the straw hat is fuckin' amazin'
Way before Northern Soul was discovered. Great song too.
Nice piece of RB soul

Absolutely brilliant KTF
Oh my.. I'm still dancin.. This tune knocks socks off my feet.. thanks your share.. :-)
I have been looking for this song for ever since i heard it on SKINS on Tuesday!!! you dont know how much i love this song!
Wow that's groovee babe !
Once again you've pulled another gem out of the hat . Keep them coming love them.
@tunesailor, oh dear! What a classic tune. I hope you're reading my comment in better circumstances
Let's wade in the water
Wade in the water
Listen to me now, wade in the water
I wanna know that you're mine
Because your love is so fine
C'mon let's wade in the water
I mean, wade in the water
Listen to me now, wade in the water
I wanna know that you're mine
Because your love is so fine
You know, baby, that you've got me uptight
Because your brand of loving feels so right
I'm like a ship in a stormy sea
So wade in the water, daddy, and rescue me
You know you got me sailing from midnight till dawn
You even got me drifting all night long
But you are the best fish that I have found
Let's wade in the water, daddy, don't let me drown
I mean wade, c'mon and wade, listen to me now
Wade in the water, I wanna know that you're mine
'Cause your love is so fine
When the water's calm and everything is right
Ain't no catfish gonna make us fight
Hold your sails to the wind, keep your ship in gear
If we sail together we got nothing to fear
You threw me your line, hey, and now I'm your bait
You got me hooked and line and stickle, let them other fish wait
Call me fin flappin' mama who's learnin to float
So, hold on captain, you're rocking the boat!
I need your loving power, it's really outta sight
C'mon, wade in the water, where everything is right
Don't let our love sink, let it float like a tree
Our love can be as great as the deep blue sea
Folks don't understand what we've got going
Don't let them make waves
C'mon, let's keep the stream flowing
I need a big ship, a yacht won't do
I wanna wade in the water and be closer to you
I mean, wade, yeah, listen to me daddy
I mean wade in the water, wade in the water
Wade in the water
I wanna know that you're mine
Because your love is so fine
Hey daddy, you really got me uptight
Even though I love it, because you're so right
SWEEEEEETTTT!!!
Love it!

Water always wins. Im in my basement bailing the overflow from a gefukt, un-snakable storm drain. Thinking of the Mac race when we got so pounded that an upper bunk fell off the bulkhead, and a thru-hull cork popped out. We broached through the Straits in pouring rain, pounding seas, and heavy air, soaked to the gills, 3 feet of water and floating gear everywhere by the time we were done. The Inspectors took one look and left.
Im trying very hard to think that it could be worse.
@docludi2 thank you!!!!
where did you find this video.awesome!i love it!
Nice.
Who besides Eleanor Powell could kick Buddy Rich's drum set and get away with it?
