Artist/Band: Tom Waits
Lyrics for Song: Jesus Gonna Be Here
Lyrics for Album: Beautiful Maladies / Island Years [1993]



Well, Jesus will be here

Be here soon

He's gonna cover us up with leaves

With a blanket from the moon

With a promise and a vow

And a lullaby for my brow

Jesus gonna be here

Be here soon



Well i'm just gonna wait here

I don't have to shout

I have no reason and

I have no doubt

I'm gonna get myself

Unfurled from this mortal coiled up world

Because Jesus gonna be here

Be here soon



I got to keep my eyes open

So i can see my Lord

I'm gonna watch the horizon

For a brand new Ford



I can hear him rolling on down the lane

I said Hollywood be thy name

Jesus gonna be

Be here soon



Well I've been faithful

And I've been so good

Except for drinking

But he knew that I would

I'm gonna leave this place better

Than the way I found it was

And Jesus gonna be here

Be here soon
