800 Pound Jesus - Sawyer Brown
Submitted by joshward_16
[D]I saw a garage sale Pulled up in the y[G]ard
Found a statue o[D]f Jesus That was 8 feet tall [A]
He held [D]out his arms And he seemed all alone [G]
So I loade[D]d him up And I drove him home [G][A]
Out by m[D]y driveway He looks down the [G]street
Long hair a[D]nd sandals Made of rebar and concrete[A]
I paint[D]ed him white With a long purple ro[G]be
He's the rock o[D]f ages On a gravel road [G][A]
Chorus:
He's an 800 [D]po[A]und Jesus Sta[G]nd[A]ing taller then a t[G]ree [Em][A]
He's and 800 po[D]un[A]d Jesus A big[G]ge[A]r man then you or [G]me [A][D]
I thought loosin my job Was the end of the world
Till my best pal Ran off with my best girl
I felt suicidal With no real friend
So I walked outside With a rope in my hand
Out by the statue There's a big oak tree
So I hopped on that statue And counted to three
I had every intention of buying the farm
But when I jumped off he caught me in his arms
I wanted to return the favor to him
Cause I never had a more solid friend
So I planted some flowers all around his feet
And I bought him a flock of ceramic sheep
Once again, hope it sounds as good to you as it does to me. Any input would
be welcomed at sharlee1@uswest.net
God Bless!
