LYRICS
Late last night, I went for a walk,
Down by the river near my home.
Couldn't believe, with my own eyes,
And I swear Ill never leave my home again.
I saw a man walking on the water.
Coming right at me from the other side.
Calling out my name; do not be afraid.
Feet begin to run, pounding in my brain;
I don't want to go; I don't want to go.
No, no, no, no, no
I don't want to go.
Mmmmmmm
thanks

@@ArmandoGarcia-yd5ex what?
Whose ghost was it?.
@@ArmandoGarcia-yd5ex WTF?
Perhaps one of the best guitar licks ever....
Which one??
Suzy Johnson suzy. Deja la fentamina ja
...perhaps not...
😘😍
I don't think so
It's like a religious experience
or a Close Encounter of The Third Kind
It kind of is a religious experience, the title gives it away
@Spencer Agnew Running through the jungle of superstition and fear and he's eight miles high...
The song is based on a nightmare Tom Forgerty had. In the dream he was walking along a riverbank at night and saw a man floating over the water and calling out to him. He turned to run, but the thing's head was in front of him. He turned the other way and ran, but this disembodied head was always just behind him, calling his name.

A case for Fox Mulder and his partner Dana Scully.
JESUS THAT'S SOME SERIOUS INSTRUMENT PLAYING THERE DRUMS .GUITARS .SPECIAL EFFECTS..AND FOGERTY'S VOICE DAMN
Masterpiece never gets old.
2 years ago you were listening to Creedence, and now you're a Z-Reich supporting, anti-world zombie. Weird story arc.
Whenever I hear John Fogerty sing the word "river" in a song, it sounds ominous.
Excuse me,what is ominous in spanish 😬
@@vicenteperez314 Just translate the word dude
“RIVAHHH”
Amen
This is the most bad ass of Creedence Songs.Guys were seriously talented.
It was credited to both Fogertys
no man, this is one of best, enjoy it.
Song written by Tom Fogerty. But due to an agreement they made, song was credited to both Fogerties.
CCR are amazing! John Fogerty is number one in the 60's-Rock and Roll!!
My dad turned me on CCR music.
yea my son used to play video games to CCR WHEN HE WAS 8 YRS OLD THANKS TO ME
HE IS NOW 31 YRS OLD AND STILL ROCKS TO THEM
My grandpa turned me on to CCR. He was pretty darn hip for a grandpa !!!! R I P pompa !!!

This always reminds me of a dream I had: I was in my apartment on the 20th floor when I heard and incredible rumble and the ground shook. I ran to the window to look. It seemed my apartment building was in a wooded area alone near a beach. Thousands of animals were migrating all together from the east to the west. Deer, bear, skunks, lions, moose and all birds in the sky. They came to a stop all around the building and laid in rest. In the distance a crowd of people were gathering at the beach and resting on their knees. I could see a glint of light. Suddenly a giant hawk busted through the glass and chased me around the room until all I could do was leave. I cautiously left the building, the hawk no longer followed. When I exited I was met with the sea of animals all resting calmly as if waiting. A lion laying next to a deer turned toward me, a bear gave a small roar, but none moved. I slowly made my way through the animals to the beach. I came to the people on their knees in the sand. I asked what was happening but got no reply. Everyone was fixated on the water. I made my way to the front of the crowd and that's when I saw what drew their attention. There was a man, not in the water but on it. Walking toward us. I got on my knees and watched as he came closer. He was tall and thin and dark. He had long dark wavy hair and beard and was wearing sunglasses. When he got to the beach some distance to my left people started reaching out but never stood. He had something in his hand. As he held it out to people they would reach to touch it. It was a piece of cloth that was tattered and orange in color. When some people reached out for it the cloth would move away from them. The man didn't move it. The cloth its itself would shift away from grasp as if it were moving in the wind. He made his way toward me. People reached and those that were able to touch the cloth seemed to feel some sort of elation. I was so confused but also curious. Finally, he came to me and held out the old cloth. Partly out of immense curiosity, but mostly uncontrollably I reached out and touched the cloth. He looked at me and smiled and I felt this wave of pure joy rise up inside of me and I didn't understand why. Nor did I care. Then I awoke.
I am certain the man in your dream was Jesus Christ and the orange cloth represents His Bride, that select group among Christians who are those in closest relationship to Him. (Orange is the color that represents His Bride.) The reason the cloth "evaded" the touch of some is that they did not have sufficient commitment to God to be accounted worthy of that close relationship with Christ. The cloth was worn and tattered because that is how the world of men's systems and half-hearted Christians treat those who are wholly His. The joy you experienced comes from that realization that you can be received and closely related with the Creator of all.
Now there is more in the earlier part of the dream but I want, first, to ask a very personal question of you; do you have any knowledge of the Creator and have you ever desired to know Him?
Heck of a dream! It kind of reminds me of a book I enjoyed reading titled 'In the Wet' by Nevil Shute. The ending was eerily similar to your dream. Not exactly, but in the ballpark.
Wow! This is the first time I have ever heard this song, and it is beyond powerful!! The lyrics are absolutely spell-binding and definately makes me think that they are about to look Death in the face. Incredible!
But WHO walks on the water. Still the question is fight or flight... do you surrender or run in fear?

I can't get enough of CCR music...
I saw lucky enough to see them at Fillmore West, SF in 3/69 when this was their only album so they played a lot of the songs on CCR. After 50 years I can't remember what all they played, but I know they were great (along with Jethro Tull and another band called Sanpaku which apparently never made it big.) I was 18; it was my first concert ever.
I was at Filmore West too. Saw CCR, Janice Joplin, Jethro Tull, Jimmy Hendrix and many others. I was in the Navy at Treasure Island, just 20 years old. The experience is forever burned into my memory and my being!! There will never be another time like it. When I play Walk on the Water I can feel the same voice calling to my soul. But, it ain't my time to go! Not yet!
This song is really damn powerful to me.
Was in the woods one day that had a small lake that the mafia back in the day would dump bodies in.
At night I was right by it, had a flashlight out and shined it toward the lake.
And there was a man right in the middle of the lake, looked like a shadow figure, walking right towards me on the water.
This song has always reminded me of that ever since.
ForzaClutch did you run?
Fuck yes he ran
ForzaClutch This story is very intriguing. Please tell me what happened next. I would like to know
THIS SONG IN THE EARLY PART OF IT HAS A SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE IN IT THE MESSAGE SAYS THE WHOLE LORDS PRAYER IN ONLY TWO SECONDS LISTEN TO IT WITH HEADPHONES 40 YEARS AGO I SLOWED THIS SONG DOWN AND FOUND IT .
Powerful shit bro
God damn this track is on fire. A band can't get any tighter than this
subg88 America’s band in mi opinion
This Group is One Of the Best. Each Song is Cool. John Fogerty is Truly Great.
Most underrated lead guitarist
indeed.
Creepy track. I love it.
This song has no comparison with another of its time. No music critic could classify it within a musical genre ...... simply a masterpiece ...wow
All Brazilian people love it's song
Buenísima rola para ir escuchándola a toda velocidad por el desierto de Sonora 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
still awesome after all these years
Un honor tener ese disco de vinilo de herencia :)
My dad in Indonesia introduced me to this, no regrets
Stunning arrangement, one of their most distinctive recordings
John did it all. Wrote it, sang it, played lead guitar and arranged it. The rest of the crew were just along for the ride.
@@evolu9660 wasn't Tom Fogerty co writer?
@@joaquinlezcano2372 Yes I believe he was, Tom was a devout Christian, hence the biblical topic, but John saw the musical possibilities, he did it for his brother.
And they did it perfectly with spirit, soul and attitude, that makes a difference
Qué monumental cancion de CCR. Para mí, una de las mas grandes de toda su discografia. Me encanta ese sonido guitarrero acido-psicofelico del primer gran album de CCR nunca valorado en su justa medida. La cancion comienza ya con un marcado ritmo de bajo-bateria con una fuerza brutal que persiste hasta que Fogerty comienza el desarrolla del solo de guitarra, hasta el final de la cancion. La voz de Fogerty explayandose maravillosamente con ese ritmo soul incesante que imprimen a la cancion, y que llega a lo más profundo de nuestros cerebros. Saludos
Es una de mis canciones preferidas también. Yo lo que nunca pude entender es si este fue el debut por qué no siguieron con esta onda. Yo creo que Doug Clifford y Stuart Cook no volvieron a tocar nada ni remotamente así de jugado más adelante, ja.
Excellent synopsis. One of those songs that can let the imagination soar.
Gracias Sr Fritts 👌
@@santisis
Sí Sr Santisis, en su primer album, la banda apuntaba muy buenas maneras en una determinada dirección musical, donde predominaba el sonido acido-psicodelico, algo muy interesante, que presumia grandes espectativas. Pero no, John tenía muy claras las ideas, y prefirio darle a su musica otras salidas, otras ideas, otros derroteros. Muy bien, triunfó, consiguió el éxito, vendió muchisimos discos... No sé si fue suficiente para valorar su trayectoria musical hasta qué nivel; soy un gran admirador de su talento, pero algo hay que me dice que podia haber llegado más lejos en cuanto a creatividad musical, especialmente todos los años perdidos despues de la separacion de la banda. Amigo Fogerty los malos rollos con tus compañeros, con tu inolvidable hermano Ton, com la discografica... lo pagaste muy caro; no sé quién fue el culpable de tan triste situacion durante tanto tiempo, pero todos salisteis perjudicados, y pudisteis hacer algo más todos y cada uno de vosotros para evitar tan lamentable situacion que se prolonga en el tiempo, hasta el dia de hoy. Soys algo egoistas, no teneis en consideracion a todos los miles de seguidores que teneis, y que nos hubiera encantado veros a los 3 miembros vivos de CCR tocar de nuevo juntos. Pero no ha podido ser.
Saludos
@@miguelfernandezdiaz6592 thank you...muchas grasias 🎼 🌞
Really have to say that everytime i hear a track from J.F. and all artistes he works with from 60’s to today, i appreciate and understand more of why he is my favourite. I don’t have heroes-except J.F. who makes music to gladden the ears, heart and mind. Already playlisted this one but it turned up on feed today and i thought i’d write again. cheers Paul. 🎵🎶🎹🎼⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you ever want to see the difference between the Golliwogs and CCR, this song is a great place to start. John Fogerty grew so much as an arranger from 1966 to 1968. The Golliwogs version is good and enjoyable. This version has balls and muscle.
You are very correct. Very similar to Sparrow becoming Steppenwolf, same thing, they kind of "fine tuned" their sound and in exactly the same time frame.
Do not be afraid
Only song co written by Tom. After this one, nobody else in the band gets credit. Great song, makes you think.
Incorrect
Not counting Mardi Gras.
I have to admit, I don't really count that one either!
This was actually written by Tom, but due to an agreement from their Golliwogs period, the song was credited to both brothers.
Masterpiece Music!
i listened to these 7 albums from CCR since the vinyl came out. still have the vinyl albums... there is nothing better.
Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bayou Country, Green River, Willy and the Poor Boys, Cosmo's Factory, Pendulum, Mardi Gras
For some reason they added tracks to the original albums on spotify / deezer and it annoys the heck out of me. but the original albums... i can listen to it over and over... and over..
Same here bud,have all their album from when they were first released,great music
Song written by older brother Tom Fogerty, not John as most would assume. Written before they were called CCR. Sadly ironic that Tom was swept away so early at age 48.
Wow did he also write or cowrote the other nightmare songs, those lyrics are incomparable, like Edgar Allan Poe stories, no kidding
Thinking about what is going on with this virus today. I know we all go to bed feeling a lil uneasy. That being said, this song, and what it represents is downright scary. "I don't wanna go"
Very nice song, I like much. Temuco, Chile 2022.
Сегодня я впервые услышал эту песню Тома Фогерти, брата Джона Фогерти. Песен у Тома много, есть сольные альбомы, но это единственная песня, которую Джон, младший брат, позволил включить в альбом Криденс. Песня супер и текст очень глубокий, типа мальчик запомнил как однажды, когда ему было очень плохо, он увидел человека, идущего по воде аки посуху. Голоса братьев практически не различимы.
What a track man! Super CCR at his best. A very powerful and talented performance. Wow! Love it.
Música para relajar el cuerpo después de un largo dia de trabajo
If not the best, one of their best songs!!!
Richard Hell and the Voidoids brought me here, BLANK GENERATION!
Their first album is the best one, hands down
Bllew me away.. Grew up listening to CCR but this & Sinister Purpise.. Brought a new appreciation for CCR
That's one thing about CCR the deep cuts are kick ass! Give Effigy a try from Wilie and the Poor Boys!
@@Cinemagoer_64 Effigy kicks ass! I’m sure he will have heard it.
Harvester of Sorrow! :)))
Was Jesus walking in the water 👍
2:56 my all time favorite Fogerty lick.
This is just awesome!!!
Thanks Tom
Beast of a track
one of my favorites
BEAUTIFUL SONG I LOVE T

De lo mejor que he escuchado ,,,,,👍🏽🇫🇷

Лучшая!
Doug Clifford a terrific drummer!
Me encanta la batería en esta canción
Like this song
perfect
I' dancing un the 60's waooo the Apple discotheque
Walk on the water me parece una gran canción y el solo de guitarra es alucinante
Maravilha de banda uma das melhores do mundo
La letra de esta canción parece la declaración de un testigo digno de Archivos X , con Mulder y Scully escuchando atentamente.
Great song, this and bad moon rising
1:35 , my favorite part
Never got or gets airplay, a real shame, kinda like a lost gem. !!!
John was likely using a homemade fuzz box he built with WW2 surplus headphones, some duct tape and a coffee can
Actually an old song from Gollywogs. The only time during CCR period that John allowed a band member to contribute, other than Mardi Gras.
He is very very fond of himself isn't he now.
I never heard of them until now. Were they a pre-CCR group or totally something else?
@@indy_go_blue6048 Pre CCR.
i had this album! and all their other ones too. they were hot in the san fransisco bay area!
And everywhere else in the US!!
@@1111tull And in Europe!
60s were such a great time for music. You'd thought you'd heard it all, it couldn't go any further, and then comes along a totally different sound with CCR.
This song is so metal
Yes
So many deep tracks that haven't gotten recognitiom... so much darkness to the lyrics ...the sound is slow, unstoppable dread
Them: Define rock'n'roll
Me:
Just fucking brilliant.
Que temazo fogerty
Rebecca chagasff viva ccr hoy mañana y siempre!

Original: The Golliwogs ( U.S. ) - Walking on the water ( recorded: 8/1966, released: 9/1966 ). became: Creedence Clearwater Revival ( U.S. ) - Walking on the water ( recorded: 2/1968, released: 5/7/1968 ). Cover: Richard Hell & Voidoids ( U.S. ) - Walking on the water ( 1977 ).
You are welcome buggywhip1 !
The Golliwogs changed their name, and came out with creedence clearwater revival. So i guess it's a cover of themselves, but better, ha,ha!
You have reason !
La mejores musicas
💙👊😎i saw a man walking on the water coming right at me👣
Remember a night with you listening this song... at letras... 8 (engrane)
❤️🍷☀️
Late last night, I went for a walk
Down by the river near my home
Couldn't believe, with my own eyes
And I swear I'll never leave my home again
I saw a man walking on the water
Coming right at me from the other side
Calling out my name, "Do not be afraid"
Feet begin to run, a pounding in my brain
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go
No, no, no, no, and no
I don't wanna go
Mm
I don't want to go
La verdad no se que comento el extranjero de alla abajo,pero lo cierto que en el disco LP que yo tengo esta version dura mas de 7 minutos...saludos...
Saludos, ojala pudieras compartir la canción de tu LP.
alex Martinez ese es SUZIE Q.
