Statue of Jesus Lyrics by Gear Daddies

Let’s Go Scare Al

1988

I’m sitting downtown crying ‘neath a statue of Jesus
Both of us lonely and cold, hope no one can see us
I know I’m drunk, yeah, but I don’t think that he’d care
Surely he must understand these crosses that I bear
So I’m sitting downtown crying ‘neath a statue of Jesus
Sometime I think she’s right, I ain’t worth a shit
A wife and kids to feed and here I sit
I swear to God I try, but I just don’t think I fit
Daddy always said everything I touched, it turned to shit
So I’m sitting downtown crying ‘neath a statue of Jesus
I did thirty days hard for stealing cigarettes
How’s a man supposed to tell his children that?
I swear to God I try, but I just don’t think I fit
Daddy always said everything I touched, it turned to shit
So I’m sitting downtown crying ‘neath a statue of Jesus
I’m sitting downtown crying ‘neath a statue of Jesus
