"Jesus And Jesse James" lyrics

"Jesus And Jesse James"

I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
Some holy water whiskey running through my veins
Working hard to get to Heaven
Ain't scared to go down in flames
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James

Where I come from it's a Sunday morning steeple
Open up the front door there's a bunch of good people
On a Saturday night it's the same ole folks
Throwing back a few beers and lighting up smokes

Oh... it's in my blood, it's how I was raised up
Oh... like Mama's King James and Granddaddy's pistol

I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
Some holy water whiskey running through my veins
Working hard to get to Heaven
Ain't scared to go down in flames
I'm a saint, I'm a sinner rolled right into one
I'm a straight shooter 'til you're at the end of my gun
I'll even say a prayer for you when your time has come
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James

When she walked in rolling out like thunder
Them river blue eyes have her pulling me under
She saved my soul without even trying
She helps me walk that line

Right between Jesus and a little Jesse James
Some holy water whiskey running through my veins
Working hard to get to Heaven
Ain't scared to go down in flames
I'm a saint, I'm a sinner rolled right into one
I'm a straight shooter 'til you're at the end of my gun
I'll even say a prayer for you when your time has come
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James

Oh... it's in my blood, it's how I was raised up
Oh... like Mama's King James and Granddaddy's pistol

I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
Some holy water whiskey running through my veins
Working hard to get to Heaven
Ain't scared to go down in flames
I'm a saint, I'm a sinner rolled right into one
I'm a straight shooter 'til you're at the end of my gun
I'll even say a prayer for you when your time has come
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
I got me some Jesus and a little Jesse James
