Dan Bern - Joe Christ songtekst

Je score:

Joe Christ was Jesus' daddy
He worked at the corner saloon
Served up Shafers' and Shlitzes
For the mill workers starting around noon
Joe Christ worked on the weekends
And on the major holidays, you bet
You know he would have tended bar on Christmas
If Christmas had been invented yet
One day his wife came in the bar
Mary Christ did not come in most days
She said Joe, there's something that I gotta tell you
I'm pregnant, big with child, in the family way
Joe Christ, he wrinkled up his brow
He said babe you know I love you have no fear
But you know on account of my condition
We haven't actually done it in a year
She said baby cakes, my honey pie, my Joe
You know I would never lie to you
It's the Lord himself, done it to me
He brought along champagne and chocolate too
It was magical, I just could not say no
He had this French accent, and what's more
He treated me just rough enough, how I like it
I felt like a ten-thousand dollar whore
But Joe, Joe you gotta understand
It didn't mean nothing, that's no lie
I only seen him once and now I'm done with it
Joe, you're my number one guy
Joe Christ
Joe Christ
Joe Christ
Deedle dee dee dee dee
Joe Christ's gonna have himself a family
Well Mary left the bar and Joe just stared
He sighed the deepest sigh he ever had
He poured himself a shot and said
I guess I'm gonna kinda sorta be a dad
Joe said, Shots of whisky on the house
And thought, Diapers, Jesus, how can I afford--
And do I believe Mary's story
Was it the milkman or really the Lord
He thought well what choice do I have
With my condition I can't get no other dame
There's a critter on the way, that's the bottom line
Don't really matter how it came
Joe closed the tavern and came on home
He found Mary sleeping on the couch
He turned off the TV and the computer
Rolled up some tobacco from his pouch
Joe Christ he stood out on the front porch
He looked up at the brightest star
And he hoped that his kid would grow up healthy
And in time take his place behind the bar
Joe Christ
Joe Christ
Joe Christ
Deedle dee dee dee dee
Joe Christ's gonna have himself a family
