Tom Waits - Jesus Gonna Be Here (Warsaw 2000)



Tom Waits at his very best........ If this guy was doing politics, the return of blasphemy would not stand a chance....


Well, jesus will be here
Be here soon
Hes 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 Im just gonna wait here
I dont have to shout
I have no reason and
I have no doubt
Im 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
Im 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 Ive been faithful
And Ive been so good
Except for drinking
But he new that I would
Im gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found it was
And jesus gonna be here
Be here soon
