Chocolate Jesus
Tom Waits, adpt. Beth Hart, Joe Bonamassa
Well I don't go to church on Sunday
Don't get on my knees to pray
Don't memorize the books of the Bible
I got my own special way
I know Jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more
If I fallin' on my knees every Sunday
At Zerelda Lee's candy store
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
To keep me satisfied
Well I don't want no Abba Zaba
Don't want no Almond Joy
Ain't nothing better
Is suitable for this girl
Well it's the only thing that can pick me up
It's better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate Jesus
To satisfy my soul
break ...
When the weather gets rough
And it's whiskey in the shade
It's best to wrap your savior
Up in cellophane
He floats like the big muddy
But that's ok
Pour him over ice cream
For a nice parfait
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Good enough for me
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel so good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus
To keep me satisfied
