Jesus Saves 가사

There was a man I used to pass On my way into town He was covered in dirt like the world had beat him down I often wondered how he ended up like that So one day, drivin' home, I pulled over to asked I said: Man, where'd it all go wrong? He said: Son, do you really wanna know? My daddy left for another woman, moved off to LA My mama fought hard against that cancer, she died when I was eight I finished school, my country shipped me off to war When I came home, my whole world didn't love me anymore It's hard to see all that when you're drivin' by So I just write down: Jesus Saves 'Cause there ain't no way I can fit that on a sign I can't fit that on a sign I took him to a diner, I bought him a cup of coffee He asked me if he could bum a couple dollars off me He told me his story, I told mine He said: Thanks 'cause most folks around here would never take the time He said: I lost my job down at the mill when that factory closed Army stopped sendin' me them checks, the bank took everything I own Hitchhiked my way up to Chicago, the nights were too damn cold I hopped a train, headed West 'cause I had nowhere else to go It's hard to see all that drivin' by So I just write down: Jesus Saves 'Cause there ain't no way I can fit that on a sign There ain't no way to fit that on a sign I probably would've wrote down a little more If I could've find a bigger piece of cardboard My brother Walter was my hero But he was bad to drink One night, he laid his Harley down Near that Ohio Riverbank Me and my ex wife tried for kids when we were datin' Hell, we even had baby names picked out But little Walter didn't make it It's hard to see all that just drivin' by So I just write down: Jesus Saves 'Cause there ain't no way I can fit that on a sign I can't fit all that on a sign
