You Can't Beat Jesus Christ

He was born to be known as everybody's brother

He is the Father, Son and Mary is His mother

He is a 'scuse my slanguage



Well, a compound country kinda guy

(Yes, He is)

Ain't no way to get around it

You just can't beat Jesus Christ

(No, you can't)



Well I used to crank and drank

Until my back was to the floor

I'd take it to the limit

Then I'd try to get some more



Yeah, when it came to gamblin'

Well, Lord I'd know how to roll them dice

(Yes, I would)

Ain't no two ways about it

I have been saved by Jesus Christ

Yes, I have



Even though I am a sinner

He will always be my friend

Well, He starts in the middle

And He does not have an end



And when my soul was held for ransom

Yeah, He is the one who paid the price

Ain't no reason to deny it

I owe it all to Jesus Christ



Yes I do, God bless you
