Jesus Was A Country Boy lyrics

I stumbled on a preacher Sunday mornin`
All decked out and made up for T.V.
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 dont 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 stanger
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, that Jesus was a country boy

My daddy never cared much for religion
And my momma worried a lot about his soul
She`d 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
And I never doubted he`d make it to heaven
`Cause it aint 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 stanger
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, that Jesus was a country boy

Oh yes and I believe
That Jesus was a country boy
