Issue Editing Curved Text

Firstly, pardon my ignorance as I am not that familiar with photoshop.
I had the following .psd logo designed and I need to alter the text "OFFICIAL PARTNER OF THE GLOBAL MOUNTAIN TRIBE"
Every time I go to click the text with the text tool, it creates a new layer rather than highlighting the existing text to be changed.
Please advise how I can change the text in a simple manner (besides going back to the designer...)
I have put the .psd and jpeg file into my google drive - I would greatly appreciate any photoshop gurus taking a look

Well you can't edit text if there is no text to edit.

The layer with the text is not an editable text layer but a rasterized version of it.

You'll have to re-do the text if you want it any different.

This is rough but you'll get the idea...

Thank you so much MrTom - following your video worked perfectly. Really appreciate you taking the time show this newbie how to do it. Will definitely be doing further research into paths.

Have yourself an awesome Saturday. Cheers.

No worries.

Like I said, its a bit rough and does contain some stuff you don't need so if you have any Q's just ask.

Regards.
