Jesus The Mexican Boy Lyrics

Jesus The Mexican Boy lyrics

Jesus the Mexican boy 

born in a truck on the fourth of July 

gave
me a card with a lady naked on the back 

Barefoot at night on the road


Fireworks blooming above in the sky 

I never knew I was given the
best one from the deck 



He never wanted nothing I remember 

Maybe a broken bottle if I had two 

Hanging behind his holy even temper


Hiding the more unholy things I do 



Jesus the Mexican boy


Gave me a ride on the back of his bike 

Out to the fair though I
welched on a $5 bet 

Drunk on Calliope songs 

We met a
home-wrecking carnival girl 

He's never asked for a favor or the money
yet 



Jesus the Mexican boy 

Born in a truck on the 4th of
July 

I fell in love with his sister unrepentantly 

Fearing he
wouldn't approve 

We made a lie that was feeble at best 

Boarded a
train bound for Vegas and married secretly 



I never gave him
nothing I remember 

Maybe a broken bottle if I had two 

Hanging
behind his holy even temper 

Hiding the more unholy things I do 



Jesus the Mexican boy 

Wearing a long desert trip on his tie


Lo and behold he was standing under the welcome sign 

Naked the
Judas in me 

Fell by the tracks but he lifted me high 

Kissing my
head like a brother and never asking why
