Sweet Jesus - Jerry Lee Lewis

Sweet Jesus

Jerry Lee Lewis

(, ELECTRA RECORDING, 1979)

Way down warm feelin'
Usually in the mornin' time
I wanna be there to meet it
When the train comes down the line

Ooh, sweet Jesus, ridin' on the glory train
It's gonna lift away my sorrow and take away my pain
Ooh, sweet music calling me from way up there
Ooh, sweet music singing in my ear

Ooh, that warm feelin'
Drinkin' that heavenly wine
And I know I'm gonna be there
'Cause Jesus is a friend of mine

(Instrumental & piano solo)

I said, ooh sweet music
Calling me from way up there
Oh, oh, ooh sweet music
Singing, singing in my ear

Lord, I wanna be there
Drinkin' that heavenly wine
And I'm gonna be there
Jesus, is a friend of mine.

(Instrumental & piano fades to end)
