|
I was on my way to somewhere to the |
|
Mexicali sand |
|
A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands |
|
He told me some stories - |
|
I told him some lies |
|
Light shone through my darkness, cast shadows from my mind |
|
His eyes they looked right through me |
|
Oh I knew he carried weight |
|
Something real was going down that day |
|
Oh I told him |
|
I'm a sinner |
|
He said that's o.k. |
|
I'm not here to change you anyway |
|
He was gone when |
|
I turned around |
|
Was it Jesus - |
|
Jesus on a |
|
Greyhound |
|
Oh we talked about the world gone bad |
|
The troubles we had seen |
|
We talked about the dirt |
|
Brown shoes he wore on his feet |
|
He said I'm tired and weary |
|
I've been riding a long way |
|
Let me rest my eyes now |
|
Let me drift away |
|
He acted Like he knew me |
|
Then he fell asleep |
|
I had no More secrets |
|
I could keep |
|
Oh I told him |
|
I'm a sinner |
|
He said that's o.k. |
|
I'm not here to change you anyway |
|
He was gone when |
|
I turned around |
|
Was it Jesus - |
|
Jesus on a |
|
Greyhound |
|
Somewhere in the sunlit mornin' |
|
I stepped off the bus in the |
|
Middle of the city of angels |
|
And that long haired hippie was up |
|
And gone where devils run and play and lust |
|
Lookin for the danger |
|
Oh and I looked at my feet and |
|
Saw the shoes that he had worn and |
|
Thank God for that beautiful stranger |
|
Was that Jesus |
|
Was that Jesus |
|
Was that Jesus |
|
Oh I told him |
|
I'm a sinner |
|
He said that's o.k. |
|
I'm not here to change you anyway |
|
He was gone when |
|
I turned around |
|
Was it Jesus - |
|
Jesus on a |
|
Greyhound |
|
And I'll rise again |
|
Ain't no power on earth can keep me down |
|
And I'll rise, |
|
I'll rise again |
|
Oh ain't no death can keep me in the ground |
|
Was that Jesus |
