From the recording Alone
Lyrics
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink
ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink
You might walk on water, but I’m about to sink
Face down in this bottle, full throttle to the brink
Jesus- don’t ever let me drink.
ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink
With barley loaves and fishes and dishes in the sink
Forty days and forty nights- and shit begin to stink
Jesus- don’t ever let me drink.
Father, Son & Holy Ghost-
Won’t you join me in a toast
I’ll make such a happy host.
I never drink alone
Jesus, we’re making quite a mess, But
Why is Mary Magdalene still haggling to be blessed?
Me and my friend Lazarus could hazard us a guess
Jesus, we’re making in such a mess
Making money-changers scream
Throwing stones at Philistines
But, like my favorite Nazarene
I never drink
ALONE- NO! NO! NO! ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
ALONE- NO! NO! NO! ALONE- NO! NO! NO!
Jesus, don’t ever let me drink…
