IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
HEAVEN KNOWS I'D
SIP IT NICE AND SLOW
I'D TRY TO PICK
A PLACE THAT AIN'T
TOO CROWDED
OR GLADLY GO
WHEREVER
HE WANTS TO GO
YOU CAN BET
I'D ORDER UP
A COUPLE TALL ONES
AND TELL THE WAITRESS
TO PUT 'EM ON MY TAB
YEAH I'D BE SURE
TO LET HIM DO
THE TALKIN'
CAREFUL WHEN I GOT
THE CHANCE TO ASK
TELL ME HOW'D YOU
TURN THE OTHER CHEEK
TO SAVE A SORRY
SOUL LIKE ME
DO YOU HEAR THE
PRAYERS I SEND
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
LIFE ENDS
AND WHEN YOU THINK
YOU'RE COMIN'
BACK AGAIN
YEAH I'D TELL EVERYONE
BUT NO ONE WOULD
BELIEVE IT
IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
YEAH I'D PUT MY WHOLE
PAYCHECK
IN THAT JUKEBOX
AND I'D FILL IT
UP WITH NOTHIN'
BUT THE GOOD STUFF
AND SIT SOMEWHERE
WE COULDN'T SEE
A CLOCK
AND ASK HIM
HOW'D YOU TURN THE
OTHER CHEEK
TO SAVE A SORRY
SOUL LIKE ME
HAVE YOU BEEN THERE
FROM THE START
HOW'D YOU CHANGE
A SINNER'S HEART
AND IS HEAVEN REALLY
JUST BEYOND THE STARS
YEAH I'D TELL EVERYONE
BUT NO ONE WOULD
BELIEVE IT
IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
NOW HE CAN PROBABLY
ONLY STAY
FOR JUST A
COUPLE ROUNDS
BUT I HOPE AND
PRAY HE'S STAYIN'
TIL WE SHUT
THE WHOLE PLACE
DOWN
ASK HIM HOW'D YOU
TURN THE OTHER CHEEK
TO SAVE A SORRY
SOUL LIKE ME
WHAT'S ON
THE OTHER SIDE
IS MOM AND
DADDY ALRIGHT
AND IF IT AIN'T
NO TROUBLE TELL
'EM I SAID HI
YEAH I'D TELL EVERYONE
BUT NO ONE WOULD
BELIEVE IT
IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
YEAH I'D TELL EVERYONE
BUT NO ONE WOULD
BELIEVE IT
IF I COULD HAVE
A BEER
WITH JESUS
Mmm Mmm Mmm
