Lyrics

american jesus

He's got a cross on his neck
But he spends Sundays in my bed
He's my blue jean little baby
With a halo on his head

He's got lips like cherry wine
And cigarette smoke on his breath
He's got pretty long brown hair
Green eyes that look like sex

Knees down at your altar
Please don't fail me now

You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won't you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you're my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You're the greatest love of my life
American Jesus

Let's drive off into the sunset
Baby, we can be reborn
Walk on water in the desert
Make a saint out of a whore

Knees down at your altar
My cowboy in a crown

You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won't you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you're my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You're the greatest love of my life
American Jesus

You got me red, white, and blue
Pledging my allegiance to you
Tell me you believe in me too
I do
Ooh, seeing stars in your eyes
No, I've never felt so alive
We can ride 'til we die

You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won't you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you're my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You're the greatest love of my life
American Jesus

You got me red, white, and blue
Pledging my allegiance to you
Tell me you believe in me too
I do
Ooh, seeing stars in your eyes
No, I've never felt so alive
We can ride 'til we die

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
My American Jesus
