I pulled up in the rain, to find Jesus sitting on the curb by a church. I offered him a ride. He was so upset, I bought him a beer. He thanked me and said:

Even though you all know me, the great I am Son of God... there's only so much I can do without you.

So we walked into a bar peopled by his people,
fresh from beneath the steeple..
ordered an IPA like equals
smirking as he remarked that they're preferred by sociopaths.
I couldn't help but laugh...
and ordered one too. And he said ""Oh, I know I know, You believe in me, but baby, I don't think you know how I believe in you"".

I says I know it ain't my business,
but your daddy has all the keys
why are we all alone, and dying
why so much war and poverty

He said:
I put in those same questions to the man upstairs. But he never returns my calls.

Damn, I'll tell you what... since it's just you and me, and this is just me sayin' this... I'll do every damned thing I can to make sure we stand up for the right things. He said:

Even though you all know me, the great I am Son of God... there's only so much I can do without you.

It's just me and you, and there's only so much I can do without you.
