Lyrics
(Kinky friedman)
Walking down division street I happened on to meet A stranger with a package in his hand He said, "mister, if you follow me Rainbow colors you will see I'll take your head into the promised land." "Friend, I don't need your stuff My jesus is enough You see them colors bright Why can't you see the light ?"
Let's get high on jesus, high on jesus I believe that he was here in town Flying high on jesus, high on jesus I'm so high i'm never coming down
One man buys a nickel sack Another buys a cadillac They both think they will drive their cares away But neither thinks to lend a hand To help his struggling fellow man They'd better buy their tickets now for judgment day
Oh, friend, let's try to score For peace and not for war For love and not for hate Before it gets too late
Let's get high on jesus, high on jesus Ain't you ever heard the nashville sound ? Flying high on jesus, high on jesus I guess, my friend, the lord still gets around
An angry mob confronted me By the university "Down with this and down with that" they cried A burning bottle in his hand A long-haired youth screamed, "come on, man The conscience of america has died!"
"Friend, I don't get my kicks Starting fires and throwing bricks I pray someday you find The gentle reason i'm
So high on jesus, high on jesus They tried to put his body under ground Flashing high on jesus, high on jesus But friend, you just can't keep the good man down."
Oh, let's get high on jesus, high on jesus They tried to put his body under ground Flashing high on jesus, high on jesus But friend, you just can't keep the good man down
