Jesus and Jezebel - Rachel Potter
Preacher says we should love our neighbors But I don't even know my neighbors names And every Sunday it's the same Trying to find the answers in the stained glass window All the sins I carry on my shoulders Well it's a wonder that I made it through the door Broke some golden rules the good book said I should stick to Does that make me rotten to the core? The whispers in the pews, well they ain't praying for me and you How can a place so sacred be filled with so much hatred? But me and Jesus, we're as thick as thieves If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe They may say a girl like me is going straight to Hell Oh but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel Met my best friend, Jack, in Sunday school Singing 'bout the B-I-B-L-E Learning 'bout the love that purifies each one of us And in His eyes, we are free But Jack grew up and fell in love with Adam Pretty soon the word sure got around And those folks who agreed that Adam should love Eve Well they kicked Jack and Adam to the ground The whispers in the pews, well they ain't praying for me and you If we're covered by His blood then who are they to judge? Yeah 'cause Jack and Jesus, they're as thick as thieves If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe They may say, straight or gay, we're going straight to hell Oh but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel This little light is mine So let me let it shine This little light is mine So let me let it shine This little light is mine So let me let it shine This little light is mine So let me let it shine, let it shine, let it shine Yeah, me and Jesus we're as thick as thieves If you don't believe us maybe you just don't believe They may say if I act this way I'm going straight to Hell Oh, but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel Oh yeah, I know Jesus loves this Jezebel
