Il testo della Gimme a ride to heaven boy

Well, i was caught up with myself
On the highway at night
Drivin' like a bat outta hell
When i beheld an amazing sight

It was a lonely apparition
By the roadside, standing there
With his thumb out in the wilderness
And a halo in his hair

He said, "gimme a ride to heaven boy
I'll show you paradise
Yeah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
My name is jesus christ"

So, i come screeching to a halt
I said, "hop on in"
He says, "thanks a lot for the lift
I forgive you of your sins"

"yeah, i just come from jerusalem
Where things are going bad
Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
I need to talk to my dad"

He said "gimme a ride to heaven boy
I'll show you paradise
Yeah gimme a ride to heaven boy
My name is jesus christ"

So i come screeching to a halt
I said, "hop on in"
He says, "thanks a lot for the lift
I forgive you of your sins"

"yeah i just come from jerusalem
Where things are going bad
Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
I need to talk to my dad"

Well, i didn't know what to do
So i jammed her down in gear
Kinda kicked my feet beneath the seat
I was trying to hide the beer

Ah, but he just grinned and said, "my friend
I know you must think it's odd
But you got nothin' to fear about drinkin' a beer
If you share it with the son of god"

He said, "gimme a ride to heaven boy
I'll show you paradise
Yeah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
My name is jesus christ"

So i come screeching to a halt
I said, "hop on in"
He says, "thanks a lot for the lift
I forgive you of your sins"

"yeah i just come from jerusalem
Where things are going bad
Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
I need to talk to my dad"

Well i saw good news in his baby blues
So i stomped it on the floor
I said, "you have to show me how to get there
I ain't been before"

"well it a hard place to find" he said
"but i'll give you a little clue
It ain't somewhere up in the air
Its sittin' right here inside with you"

Then right in the middle of that perfect smile
From his robes he pulled a gun
An stuck it up beside my head and said
"how's this for kingdom come?"

Well i pulled off scared but i heard him say
As he left me beneath the stars
"the lord moves in mysterious ways
And tonight, my son, he gonna use your car"

He said, "gimme a ride to heaven boy
I'll show you paradise
Yeah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
My name is jesus christ"

So i come screeching to a halt
I said, "hop on in"
He says, "thanks a lot for the lift
I forgive you of your sins"

"yeah, i just come from jerusalem
Where things are going bad
Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy
I need to talk to my dad"
