(Michael Lardie, Jack Russell, Don Dokken)



Down the road in my car

A wooden Jesus on my dashboard

Go to work to stay alive

I'm just a sinner tryin' to survive

Yeah we commit all those deadly sins

But I don't worry 'cause I got my friend



I got my wooden Jesus in my car

He's always with me, never too far

Yeah my wooden Jesus forgives me

I'm a sinner that's why I believe

In my wooden Jesus



Wake up in the mornin' sun

On my dresser got another one

Say a prayer to start my day

Maybe the big man will show me the way

A money maker down in east L.A.

Stampin' 'em out, ten thousand a day



I got a wooden Jesus in my car

He's always with me, never too far

Yeah my wooden Jesus he's my friend

I've been a lion layin' down with the lamb



I got my friend, got my soul

Why he forgives me, God only knows

'Cause he's a wooden Jesus

Wooden Jesus yeah, wooden Jesus, oh yeah



Oh Lordy take me on away from here

Take me down the road to salvation

Help me Jesus, try to find my way

Send me a revelation



I gotta wooden Jesus in my car

Got him stittin' on my dashboard

Wooden Jesus shows the way

He keeps me ready for that judgement day

He's my wooden Jesus forgivin' me



I need a savior, so I try to believe

In my wooden Jesus doesn't mind

He always loves me

He's my kind of wooden Jesus

Wooden Jesus yeah, wooden Jesus



Ten thousand, maybe more

Wrapped with string on a cheap old board

Cast iron believe me

$5.95 will buy your reprieve



Wooden Jesus yeah

He's my friend

Show me the way

Keep me ready for that judgement day

Wooden Jesus
