Jesus Gonna Be Here

(tom waits)



Well, jesus will be here

Be here soon

He's gonna cover us up with leaves

With a blanket from the moon

With a promise and a vow

And a lullaby for my brow

Jesus gonna be here

Be here soon



Well i'm just gonna wait here

I don't have to shout

I have no reason and

I have no doubt

I'm gonna get myself

Unfurled from this mortal coiled up world

Because jesus gonna be here

Be here soon



I got to keep my eyes open

So i can see my lord

I'm gonna watch the horizon

For a brand new ford



I can hear him rolling on down the lane

I said hollywood be thy name

Jesus gonna be

Gonna be here soon



Well i've been faithful

And i've been so good

Except for drinking

But he new that i would

I'm gonna leave this place better

Than the way i found it was

And jesus gonna be here

Be here soon
