Lyrics Jesus On A Greyhound

I was on my way to somewhere, to the Mexicali sand
A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands
He told me some stories, I told him some lies
Light shone through in the darkness, cast shadows from my mind
His eyes they looked right through me, oh I knew he carried weight
Something real was going down that day

Oh I told him I'm a sinner
He said that's o.k.
I'm not here to change you anyway
He was gone when I turned around
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound

Oh we talked about the world gone bad, the troubles we had seen
We talked about the dirt, brown shoes he wore on his feet
He said I'm tired and weary, I've been riding a long way
Let me rest my eyes for now, let me drift away
He acted like he knew me, and then he fell asleep
I had no more secrets I could keep

Oh I told him I'm a sinner
He said that's o.k.
I'm not here to change you anyway
He was gone when I turned around
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound

Somewhere in the sunlit mornin'
I stepped off the bus in the middle of the city of angels
And that long haired hippie was up
And gone where devils run and play and lust are
Lookin for the danger
Oh and I looked at my feet and
Saw the shoes that he had worn and
Thank God for that beautiful stranger
Was that Jesus
Was that Jesus
Was that Jesus

Oh I told him I'm a sinner
He said that's o.k.
I'm not here to change you anyway
He was gone when I turned around
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound
Was that Jesus on a Greyhound today

And I'll rise again
Ain't no power on earth can keep me down
Say, and I'll rise, I'll rise again
Oh ain't no death can keep me in the ground
Was that Jesus
Was that Jesus
On a Greyhound
Ooh yeah
Was that Jesus
