If Jesus Was From Nashville Lyrics - Singles - Kalee Hric

If Jesus was from Nashville 

He'd have a sweet guitar 

He'd be a country singer 

Ya...He'd be a great big star! 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

He'd create a Media blitz 

With a string of number one hits 

That would go somethin' like this 

I Can't Do Any Miracles 

In My Own Home Town, 

The Government's On My Back 

and My Buddies All Let Me Down 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

One thing would be quite clear 

That He would get a record deal 

If He'd turn the water into beer! 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

It might seem a little weird 

To see Him wearin' a cowboy hat 

With short hair and no beard! 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

Amazin' Grace would be His song 

And we'd hear it on the juke box 

In every Honky-tonk! 

(Along with) I Can't Do Any Miracles 

In My Own Home Town, 

The Government's On My Back 

And My Buddies All Let Me Down 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

One thing would be quite clear 

That He would get a record deal 

If He'd turn the water into beer! 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

Oh it wouldn't be too long 

Before He turned 

His sermons into song! 

You'd see Him at the award show 

The only guy in a tux and bare feet 

Cause He probably just came in from the farm 

Where He was siftin' the tares from the wheat! 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

He'd probably have a truck 

And drive around in the muck! 

When He's not out on tour 

In a great big shiny bus! 

Travelin' around from town to 

Town preachin' to a bunch 

Of sinners just like us! Just like us! 

Ah come on don't get all offended 

We're just havin' a little fun 

Cause we all know that Jesus was 

From Heaven! 

But He couldn't do any miracles 

In His own home town, 

The government was on His back 

And His buddies all let Him down 

If Jesus was from Nashville 

One thing would be quite clear 

That He would probably still 

Get crucified right here 

Right here
