Overkill - Hymn 43 lyrics

rate me

[JETHRO TULL]

Oh father high in heaven -- smile down upon your son

He's busy with his money games -- his women and his gun.

Oh Jesus save me!

And the unsung Western hero, he killed an Indian or three

And then he made his name in Hollywood

To set the white man free.

Oh Jesus save me!

If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself

from the gory glory seekers who use His name in death.

Oh Jesus save me!

If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself

from the gory glory seekers who use His name in death.

Yeah, oh Jesus save me!

Well I saw him in the city and on the mountains of the moon --

His cross was rather bloody --

He could hardly roll His stone.

Oh Jesus save me!
