Cocorosie - Jesus Loves Me lyrics

Jesus loves me

But not my wife

Not my nigger friends

Or their nigger lives

But jesus loves me

Dat for sure

'Cause the bible tell me so

Read your bible good and well

Don't forget about that apple spell

Don't fall in the wishing well

Wishing for heaven and gettin' hell

Wash behind your ears don't smell

Cover them freckles don't ask don't tell

Kiss your papa but not too long

Hold his hand

Don't do no wrong

Jesus loves me

But not my wife

Not my nigger friends

Or their nigger lives

But jesus loves me

Dat for sure

'Cause the bible tell me so

Hush don't cry

Dry them tears

Time'll wash away all them years

Scar or a bruise

Pick and choose

When you're all grown up

You'll have the blues

Life'll give you that wedding ring

Fancy cars and diamond things

You best believe in Jesus' way

And never fall asleep forgetting to pray

Jesus loves me

But not my wife

Not my nigger friends

Or their nigger lives

But jesus loves me

Dat for sure

'Cause the bible tell me so

'Cause the bible tell me so
