INDIGO GIRLS - hey jesus lyrics

rate me

hey jesus it's me

i don't usually talk to you

but my baby's gonna leave me

and there's something you must do

i am not your faithful servant

i hang around sometimes

with a bunch of your black sheep

but if you make my baby stay

i'll make it up to you

and that's a promise i will keep

hey jesus it's me

i'm the one who talked to you yesterday

and i asked you please please

for a favor but my baby's gone away

went away anyway

and i don't really think its fair

you've got the power to make us all

believe in you

and then we call you in our despair

and you don't come through

hey jesus it's me

i'm sorry

i don't remember all i said

i had a few, no, too many

and they went straight to my head

and made me feel like i could argue with god

but you know it's easy for you

you got friends all over the world

you had the whole world waiting for your birth

but now i ain't got nobody

i don't know what my life's worth

i'm not gonna call on you any more

i'm sure you've got a million things to do

all i was trying to do

was to get through to you

get through to you

because when i die and i get up to your doors

i don't even know if you're gonna let me in the place

how come i gotta die

to get a chance to talk to

you face to face
