1
Jesus save me
2
Jesus save me
3
Can I tell you something?
4
Can I tell you a story?
5
It's about me and Billy
6
'Cause I remember
7
I remember it all started when he bought that car
8
It was the first thing he'd ever owned apart from me
9
And the color was red
10
And the color was red and he drove me
11
He drove me out of my mind
12
I'm over it now
13
It was spring or summer sixty five I don't remember
14
Steaming and sweating and sticking against the wheel
15
And I could see the tendons stand out in the back of his neck
16
And he used to make me pray, wearing a mask like a death's head
17
When he put me there in the back seat, and he said
18
Jesus save me
19
Jesus save me
20
Inherited his father's hate that what he'd say
21
And he custom of destruct the pain of every escape but somehow
22
He could make joy come loose inside
23
I would feel really I would feel really and truly alive
24
And I would do anything for him
25
It just wasn't enough
26
It was never enough
27
He'd turn to me and say
28
He'd, he'd say "even the son of god had to die, my darling"
29
And he wanted everything
30
He wanted everything
31
He wanted the honey from the king
32
Each new moon
33
He used to make me pray
34
Every morning
35
Hidden in the backseat, such Jesus
36
He'd make me pray
37
And he'd in there when he wanted everything
38
He wanted the honey from the king
39
Say it
40
"Even the son of god had to die my darling"
41
Go on, say it!
42
Jesus save me
43
Jesus save me
