Tom Waits — Jesus Gonna Be Here

Well, Jesus gonna be here He gonna 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 Well, Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon Well, I'm not gonna do nothin' but wait here I don't have to shout, yeah I got me no reason And I got no doubt, yeah I'm gonna get myself unfurled From this mortal coiled-up world Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah I got to keep my eyes, keep 'em wide open, yeah So I can see my Lord, yeah I'm gonna watch the horizon For my brand new Ford, yeah Well, I can hear him rolling on down the lane I said "Hollywood be thy name" 'Cause Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah Well, I got to keep myself, keep myself faithful And you know I've been so good, yeah Except for drinking But He knew that I would, yeah Well, I'm gonna leave this place better Than the way I found that it was And Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah I know my Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah I know my Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah
