When Jesus left Birmingham

All the disciples went crazy

When Jesus left Birmingham

All the people went completely nuts

They all busted out on a wild night

Riding high on a golden calf

When Jesus left Birmingham

All the people had themselves a big long laugh



Well my girl, she's a waltzer

And she can talk herself out of any mess

Mi girl, she don't pray

But somehow she seems still to be blessed

And when those crazy nights come callin'

Man, she'll dance on the tables

Like all of the rest

When my girl left Birmingham

She was doing what se thought was best



It's all free on the inside

I passed a very uncomfortable evening last night

Save us right now, we need you...

To hell with all the lies and liars

Recovery, recovery, I don't know about any recovery

Inside, gotta get inside

Inside



I see myself with a rosary

I'm in a garden and I'm talking to myself

I ain't sayin' much worth repeating

Just askin' for forgiveness and all of his best

When those crazy nights come callin'

Man, I'm just as human as I can be

When Jesus left Birmingham

He left it there for you and me

When Jesus left Birmingham

He left it there for you and me



So let it rock, let it roll

Let the Bible Belt come and save my soul
