[Verse 1]
JC rose two days later just to show his friends that he could
Almost as if to say the afterlife's alright but it’s not that good
JC walked through the streets of Jerusalem
People stickin' their hands into the holes in his side
Singin' there is death and there is life
And the echo of both that survive
[Chorus 1]
Your life lasts so much longer than
The time that you spend down here kicking
Baton Rouge Easter Sunday
Just a bottle of wine and me
[Verse 2]
The best show I ever had there were twelve people in the audience
But everyone knew all the words to my songs
Got three encores, had to close the coffee shop down
But we all went outside and sang some more
[Chorus 2]
Don’t judge your success my friend on the number of humans
That see you up there doing you thing
Baton Rouge Easter Sunday
Just a bottle of wine and me
[Verse 3]
Down here we got everything, we got the good and the bad
Up there they only got the good
Deep down I think we love the uncertainty
This is the heaven that everybody wants
[Chorus 3]
And death is nothing more than the moment
For your echo to start and scream
Baton Rouge Easter Sunday
Just a bottle of wine and me
