Ub Jesus

Sunrise, I'm still dancingGirlfriend, she's my champion
Swing low, pull me over
Hey - be my savior
Blood, Skin
Show me the book
Don't understand the language that they spoke
Don't pity me
Have pity on yourself
You might know Jesus but you'll all join in hell
Shine On Sister!
Don't need a book to put your hand in the fire
Shine On Sister!
Come on in cause it's cold outside
Kiss Me!
Kiss Me!
I can tell your name by the markings on your face
U. B. Jesus
Makin' my way & I'm lovin' my life
Kiss Me!
Kiss Me!
Swing so crazy like the way you ride
Maybe I'm gonna fry in hell
But I feel good when I burn myself
In a smokey place, In my girlfriends car
Threw out the map when we drove to far
Jesus is big
Jesus is strong
Jesus'll kill you if you don't get along
Jesus can swing
Jesus has skills
Go on & try it if you don't believe he will
Jump Back, Jump Back
Givin' me a heart attack
Fall down, Fall down
Sweeter than a cherry bomb
Sweet Thing, Sweet Thing
Steppin' on your violin
Space Boy, Fly Girl
Living in the underworld
Shine On Sister!
Don't need a book to put your hand in the fire
Shine On Sister!
Come on in cause it's cold outside
Jesus is cool
Jesus is scared
Baby you are the only car I drive
Foolin around
Foolin myself
Baby you are the only car I drive
Easy to touch
Easy to find
Baby you are the only car I drive
Melts in my mouth
Melts in the hand
Baby you are the only car I drive
Outta my skin
Outta my life
Baby you are the only car I drive
They only car I drive
