about

Skinny Dipping was written by Wilson Harwood and Andrew Steva in Nashville. This song came about when Andrew said the line "Skinny dipping in the water." I remember saying hey that has a nice feel to it. Then one of us came up with the line "preacher's daughter" and the song was born. The character of a preacher's daughter felt so real and her ironic dark side was so much fun to write.

lyrics

Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Down by the river with the preacher’s daughter


I took her out last Saturday night
Had everything planned out nice
She didn’t want no five star dinner
So she took me down to the cool muddy river

Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Down by the river with the preacher’s daughter

Last sunday I was sitting in church
Couldn’t stop looking over at her
I imagined cool water running down her body
Things I shouldn’t think in the house of God

Your father our pastor
Makes my heartbeat a whole lot faster
I’m scared you’re not
I hear the pastor is a pretty good shot

Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Down by the river with the preacher’s daughter

Oh lord forgive me father
I’ve been skinny dipping with your daughter
Oh lord forgive me father
I’ve been skinny dipping with your daughter

Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Skinny Dipping in the water
Down by the river with the preacher’s daughter
Oh lord forgive me father
