I’m Only Jesus

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bobby's got a duster '79 Bottle of Jack and a 45 Points it at his head And he starts to cry Too proud to ask me To save his life [Verse 2] Billy's in a limo On the upper east side Playing Russian Roulette With the long white line His wife gets a call at 3 a.m Saying "Billy ain't never coming home again" She asks me why? [Chorus] And I said I sure wish you'd believe That everybody's free And I'll help you if you ask me to I gave every star a name The sunshine and the rain But I can't decide the road you choose That's up to you I'm only Jesus [Verse 3] Johnny had a good job Rakin' it in Caviar parties With his well to do friends Something was missing From his perfect little life He threw in the towel And he called me one night [Verse 4] Betty was an orphan Like so many kids They taught her in school That I didn't exist She had every reason not to talk to me But every night before bed She got down on her knees Just to tell me hi [Chorus] And I said I sure wish you'd believe That everybody's free And I'll help you if you ask me to I gave every star a name The sunshine and the rain But I can't decide the road you choose That's up to you I'm only Jesus [Chorus 2] Hey you're all the same to me Everybody's free And I'll help you if you ask me to I gave every star a name The sunshine and the rain But I can't decide the road you choose That's up to you I'm only Jesus I'm only Jesus I'm only Jesus [Outro] Gotta have Jesus to see the light Gotta have Jesus to hold you tight Gotta have Jesus to talk to me I gotta have Jesus to set me free
