"Hymn 43" lyrics
(originally by Jethro Tull)
Oh, father high in heaven
Smile down upon your son
He's busy with his money games
His women and his gun
Oh, Jesus, save me!
And the unsung Western hero
He killed an Indian or three
And then he made his name in Hollywood
To set the white man free
Oh, Jesus, save me!
If Jesus saves, well, He'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death
Yeah, oh, Jesus, save me!
If Jesus saves, well, He'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death
Oh, Jesus, save me!
Well, I saw him in the city
And on the mountains of the moon
His cross was rather bloody
He could hardly roll His stone
Oh, Jesus, save me!
Smile down upon your son
He's busy with his money games
His women and his gun
Oh, Jesus, save me!
And the unsung Western hero
He killed an Indian or three
And then he made his name in Hollywood
To set the white man free
Oh, Jesus, save me!
If Jesus saves, well, He'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death
Yeah, oh, Jesus, save me!
If Jesus saves, well, He'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death
Oh, Jesus, save me!
Well, I saw him in the city
And on the mountains of the moon
His cross was rather bloody
He could hardly roll His stone
Oh, Jesus, save me!
