| | And It Stoned Me Lyrics Artist(Band):Van Morrison
Half a mile from the county fair And the rain keep pourin' down Me and Billy standin' there With a silver half a crown Hands are full of a fishin' rod And the tackle on our backs We just stood there gettin' wet With our backs against the fence Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Hope it don't rain all day Chorus: And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like Jelly Roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin' home And it stoned me Then the rain let up and the sun came up And we were gettin' dry Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by So we jumped right in and the driver grinned And he dropped us up the road We looked at the swim and we jumped right in Not to mention fishing poles Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Let it run all over me Chorus On the way back home we sang a song But our throats were getting dry Then we saw the man from across the road With the sunshine in his eyes Well he lived all alone in his own little home With a great big gallon jar There were bottles too, one for me and you And he said Hey! There you are Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Get it myself from the mountain stream If you find some error in And It Stoned Me Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about And It Stoned Me The Perfect Song? | Reviewer: Brock Perks | 5/7/2007 And It Stoned Me is Van Morrison at his most reflective and sentimental but never does he lapse into a generalised mawkishness. The song evokes a golden time when youth and freedom were almost a sacred state of being, simple and pure. The beat is a stately dance but overlaid with Vans deeply personal vocals, it steps its way delicately into our subconscious. We can see the sunshine on the grassy meadows and feel the deep, vital pleasure of that crystal clear stream on our skin. Its impossible to imagine that this song could have been done better or even differently. Nothing, from the piano flourishes to the repetitions of the chorus, stand out as more or less memorable or important to the integrity of the whole. But the overall effect is of a memory. The songs emotional power is distilled in its rendering of a past which we know is gone forever, leaving a part of our soul enriched by having been there once upon a time.
