John Mellencamp When Jesus Left Birmingham
When Jesus left Birmingham All the disciples went crazy When Jesus left Birmingham All the people went completely nuts They all busted out on a wild night Riding high on a golden calf When Jesus left Birmingham All the people had themselves a big long laugh Well my girl, she's a waltzer And she can talk herself out of any mess Mi girl, she don't pray But somehow she seems still to be blessed And when those crazy nights come callin' Man, she'll dance on the tables Like all of the rest When my girl left Birmingham She was doing what se thought was best It's all free on the inside I passed a very uncomfortable evening last night Save us right now, we need you... To hell with all the lies and liars Recovery, recovery, I don't know about any recovery Inside, gotta get inside Inside I see myself with a rosary I'm in a garden and I'm talking to myself I ain't sayin' much worth repeating Just askin' for forgiveness and all of his best When those crazy nights come callin' Man, I'm just as human as I can be When Jesus left Birmingham He left it there for you and me When Jesus left Birmingham He left it there for you and me So let it rock, let it roll Let the Bible Belt come and save my soul ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
