Text: Hayes Carll. She Left Me For Jesus.

we''ve been datin since high school we never once left this town
we use to go out on the weekends and we''d drink til we drowned
but now shes acting funny and i dont understand
i think that shes found her some other man


chorus:

she left me for jesus and that just aint fair
she says that hes perfect how could i compare
she says i should find him and ill know peace at last
if i ever find jesus im kickin his ass


she showed me a picture all i could do was stare
at that freak in his sandals with his long pretty hair
they must think that im stupid or i dont have a clue
ill bet hes a commie or ever worse yet a jew

repeat chorus

shes given up whiskey and ah takin up wine
while she prays for his troubles shes forgot about mine
im a gonna get even i cant handle the shame
why last time we made love she even called out his name

repeat chorus

it coulda been carlos or even billy ortez
but if i ever find jesus
hes gonna wish he was dead amen
