Lyrics for Song: Jesus Was A Capricorn
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Classics [2009]
(Kris Kristofferson)
Jesus was a Capricorn, He ate organic foods
He believed in love and peace and never wore no shoes
Long hair, beard and sandals and the funky bunch of friends
Reckon they'd just nail him off if he come down again.
'Cause everybody's gotta have somebody to look down on
Who they can feel better than at anytime they please
Someone doing something dirty, decent folks can frown on
You can't find nobody else than help yourself to me.
--- Instrumental ---
Eggheads cussin', rednecks cussin', hippies for the hair
Others laugh at straights who laugh at freaks who laugh at square
Some folks hate the whites who hate the blacks who hate the clan
Most of us hate anything we don't understand.
'Cause everybody's gotta have somebody to look down on
Who they can feel better than at anytime they please
Someone doing something dirty, decent folks can frown on
You can't find nobody else than help yourself to me.
Help yourself brother, help yourself Jim, help yourself Reverend...
