Lyrics

As I was driving back from the bar
Something was glowing out in the dark
I hit the brakes, I rubbed my eyes
And there he was, to my surprise

Bright green Jesus
I saw a bright green Jesus
Bright green Jesus
Just as real as you and me

I said “Hey Jesus I’ve got to know:
Is there a heaven, and can I go?
Will there be beer? Will it be free?
And can I bring my guns with me?”

I ain’t sayin’ I’m a perfect man
I ain’t sayin’ that I’ve never sinned
But I’m gonna live with Jesus, yes I am
Coz when my country called me
I killed for him

I wanna ask him if he would mind
Excluding people that ain’t my kind
I wanna know what he would say
But now he’s gone, he faded away

But then he up and disappeared
Now how come he disappeared?
