ME AND JESUS
(Tom T. Hall)


Tom T. Hall&  Mt. Pisagah United Methodist Church Choir - 1971





Well, me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about

I know a man who once was a sinner
I know a man that once was a drunk
I know a man once was a loser
But he went out one day and made an altar out of a stump

Well, me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about

Jesus brought me through all of my troubles
Jesus brought me through all of my trials
Jesus brought me through all of my heartaches
And I know that Jesus ain't gonna forsake me now

Well, me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about

We can't afford any fancy preachin'
We can't afford any fancy church
We can't afford any fancy singin'
But you know Jesus got a lotta poor people out a-doin' his work

Well, me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about

Well, me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus.............FADE
