Jesus Was A Country Boy

I stumbled on a preacher Sunday mornin'' All decked out and made up for TV Askin' for some money from God's people Talkin' all that high theology Well, I might be just an old blue collar There's things about the Lord that I don't know But I bet he never had a million dollars Or wore a lot of stylish fancy clothes 'Cause Jesus was a country boy Walkin' down a dirt road with everything that He owned He never met a stranger Born in a barn underneath the stars His momma laid Him in a manger Swimmin' in the river Fishin' for His dinner Livin' with the sinners like me Makes me think Jesus was a country boy My daddy never cared much for religion And my mama worried a lot about his soul She's hit her knees and pray for him on Sunday While daddy hit his favorite fishin' hole You see daddy was a rebel and a rambler But I always knew he loved my momma so I never doubted, he'd make it to heaven 'Cause it's not who you are, it's who you know And daddy knew That Jesus was a country boy Walkin' down a dirt road with everything that He owned He never met a stranger Born in a barn underneath the stars His momma laid Him in a manger Swimmin' in the river Fishin' for His dinner Livin' with the sinners like me Makes me think Jesus was a country boy Oh yes and I believe That Jesus was a country boy
