Lyrics
He was born to be known
As everybody's brother
He is the Father
Son and Mary is his mother
He is a 'scuse my slanguage
Well a compound country kinda guy
Yes he is
Ain't no way to get around it
You just can't beat Jesus Christ
No you can't
Well I used to crank and drank
Until my back was to the floor
I'd take it to the limit
Then I'd try to get some more
Yeah when it came to gamblin'
Well Lord I'd know how to roll them dice
Yes I would
Ain't no two ways about it
I have been saved by Jesus Christ
Yes I have
Praise the Lord guitar
well even though I am a sinner
He will always be my friend
He starts in the middle
And He does not have an end
When my soul was held for ransom
he is the one who paid the price
Ain't no two ways about it
I owe it all to Jesus Christ
Praise the Lord harmonica
Yes he was born to be known as everybody's brother
He is the Father, Son and Mary is His mother
He is a 'scuse my slanguage well
a compound country kinda guy
Yes, He is
Ain't no way to get around it
You just can't beat Jesus Christ
I mean it, that's true
