Well I ain't never been an angel
Ain't never beed called a saint
Yeah, I've decorated every bar um town
With a big red coat of paint
Bit good thing I had good raising
For all the hell I've raised since then
When that roll is called up yonder
I know they're gonna let me in
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might haver a little Rust on my Halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Now I've been a little more cold beer
Than Holy water, it"'s true
More saturday night on and old stool
Than a Sunday morning pew
But even old Hank Williams
Finally saw the light
And, oh Hallelujah, I have too
And It ain't Just neow kind
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might haver a little Rust on my Halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Whoa, I got a long, long way to Go
Whoa, but I'm gonna get there I know
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might haver a little Rust on my Halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Yeah, he does, and he ain't letting go
