Drop Tuning Intro:                       Verse One night he wandered in to that old mission the one down on the poor side of town. He really had no int’rest in salvation just a place to lay his drunk old body down. He said ma’am I sure am hungry and I don’t have a penny to my name. Lord knows I hadn’t worked in a month of Sundays. I’m dirty dead ’broke and so ashamed. I need bread an water man that’s all I need. Bread and water a place to rest my feet. I ain’t too proud to get down on my knees for bread and water’s free. Interlude:         verse 2: She said you’re always welcome at this table saidbrother you look like you could use a friend. and there’s no need to pay if you’re not able ’cause even Jesus was a homeless man. Well she opened up the word and started reading about the savior and the woman at the well. Said it ain’t for me to judge this life you’re leading there’s only two things that can save your soul from hell. It’s bread and water man that’s all you need. Bread and water a place to rest your feet. You ain’t to proud to get down on your knees for bread and water’s free. Interlude:         verse 3:    When he bowed his head he kind of choked up they spoke ev’ry word of Our Lord’s prayer. He closed his eyes and never woke up. And he’ll find bread and water waiting there. Outro Chorus: Bread and water man that’s all you need. Bread and water place to rest your feet. Bread and water man that’s all you need. Bread and water brother just believe. If you ain’t too proud to get down on your knees for bread and water’s free. For bread and water’s free. Outro:

Dans cette chanson, un homme en détresse entre dans un vieux refuge, cherchant un moment de répit et de réconfort. Il est au fond du seau, sans argent ni espoir, exprimant simplement son besoin de nourriture et d'un endroit tranquille. Une femme, accueillante et compatissante, lui rappelle que même Jesus a connu la pauvreté et qu'il n'est pas à juger son parcours. Ensemble, ils parlent de foi et de la puissance du pain et de l'eau, éléments symboliques d'espoir et de rédemption. Ce récit se déroule dans un cadre humble, où la solidarité et la générosité se manifestent face à la souffrance. La femme offre plus qu'un repas ; elle propose un moment de partage et d'encouragement spirituel, insistant sur l'importance de retourner à la simplicité et à l'essentiel. Au final, l'homme, touché, trouve un apaisement final, rappelant que la vraie richesse réside dans la foi et la communauté.
