High on Jesus Lyrics

Artist: Kinky Friedman
Album: Sold American

(Kinky Friedman)

Walking down Division Street
I happened on to meet
A stranger with a package in his hand.
He said, â‚¬Å“Mister, if you follow me
Rainbow colors you will see,
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll take your head into the Promised Land.â‚¬?
â‚¬Å“Friend, I donâ‚¬â„¢t need your stuff,
My Jesus is enough.
You see them colors bright,
Why canâ‚¬â„¢t you see the light ?â‚¬?

Letâ‚¬â„¢s get high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
I believe that He was here in town.
Flying high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
Iâ‚¬â„¢m so high Iâ‚¬â„¢m never coming down.

One man buys a nickel sack,
Another buys a Cadillac,
They both think they will drive their cares away.
But neither thinks to lend a hand
To help his struggling fellow man,
Theyâ‚¬â„¢d better buy their tickets now for Judgment Day.

Oh, friend, letâ‚¬â„¢s try to score
For peace and not for war,
For love and not for hate
Before it gets too late.

Letâ‚¬â„¢s get high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
Ainâ‚¬â„¢t you ever heard the Nashville sound ?
Flying high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
I guess, my friend, the Lord still gets around.

An angry mob confronted me
By the university,
â‚¬Å“Down with this and down with thatâ‚¬? they cried.
A burning bottle in his hand,
A long-haired youth screamed, â‚¬Å“Come on, man,
The conscience of America has died!â‚¬?

â‚¬Å“Friend, I donâ‚¬â„¢t get my kicks
Starting fires and throwing bricks,
I pray someday you find
The gentle reason Iâ‚¬â„¢m

So high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
They tried to put His body under ground.
Flashing high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
But friend, you just canâ‚¬â„¢t keep the good man down.â‚¬?

Oh, letâ‚¬â„¢s get high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
They tried to put His body under ground.
Flashing high on Jesus, high on Jesus,
But friend, you just canâ‚¬â„¢t keep the good man down.
