CAME TO TOWN ON AN
OLD FREIGHT TRAIN
HE JUMPED OFF IN
THE POURIN' RAIN
EVERYBODY SAID
HE'S INSANE
JUST A LOW DOWN
NO ACCOUNT HOBO
HE MADE HIS BED 'NEATH
THE COUNTY BRIDGE
THE CITY FOLK SAID
HEY THAT'S NOT HIS
THEY SIGNED A PETITION
THEY'RE GONNA GET RID
OF THAT LOW DOWN NO
ACCOUNT WHITE TRASH
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
ON AN OLD FREIGHT TRAIN
IN A HOBO HAT
WILL WE LET HIM IN OR
TURN OUR BACK
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
OH WHAT IF JESUS
COMES BACK
LIKE THAT
SHE WAS BORN
INTO DRUG ABUSE
SHE COULDN'T HELP
WHAT HER MAMA USED
IT WASN'T LIKE SHE
GOT TO CHOOSE
NOW SHE'S LAYIN'
THERE ALL ALONE
GOT A MONKEY
ON HER BACK
THE NURSES SAY
THEY NEVER SAW
A SMILE LIKE THAT
DOCTOR SAYS SHE MIGHT
STAND A CHANCE
IF SOMEBODY TAKES
HER HOME
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
TWO MONTHS EARLY
HOOKED ON CRACK
WILL WE LET HIM IN OR
TURN OUR BACK
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
OH WHAT IF JESUS
COMES BACK
LIKE THAT
NOBODY SAID
LIFE IS FAIR
WE'VE ALL GOT
A CROSS TO BEAR
WHEN IT GETS A LITTLE
HARD TO CARE
JUST THINK ABOUT HIM
HANGING THERE
HE CAME TO TOWN ON
A COLD DARK NIGHT
A SINGLE STAR HIS
ONLY LIGHT
THE BABY BORN
THAT SILENT NIGHT
A MANGER FOR
HIS BED
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
WHERE WILL HE FIND
OUR HEARTS ARE AT
WILL HE LET US IN OR
TURN HIS BACK
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
WILL HE CRY WHEN
HE SEES
WHERE OUR HEARTS
ARE AT
WILL HE LET US IN OR
TURN HIS BACK
WHAT IF JESUS COMES
BACK LIKE THAT
HEY WHAT IF JESUS
COMES BACK
LIKE THAT
