Hey Jesus

Lyrics

hey jesus it's me
 i don't usually talk to you
 but my baby's gonna leave me
 and there's something you must do
 i am not your faithful servant
 i hang around sometimes
 with a bunch of your black sheep
 but if you make my baby stay
 i'll make it up to you
 and that's a promise i will keep
 hey jesus it's me
 i'm the one who talked to you yesterday
 and i asked you please please
 for a favor but my baby's gone away
 went away anyway
 and i don't really think its fair
 you've got the power to make us all
 believe in you
 and then we call you in our despair
 and you don't come through
 hey jesus it's me
 i'm sorry
 i don't remember all i said
 i had a few, no, too many
 and they went straight to my head
 and made me feel like i could argue with god
 but you know it's easy for you
 you got friends all over the world
 you had the whole world waiting for your birth
 but now i ain't got nobody
 i don't know what my life's worth
 i'm not gonna call on you any more
 i'm sure you've got a million things to do
 all i was trying to do
 was to get through to you
 get through to you
 because when i die and i get up to your doors
 i don't even know if you're gonna let me in the place
 how come i gotta die
 to get a chance to talk to
 you face to face
