Ray Stevens - Would Jesus Wear a Rolex lyrics

[Ray Stevens - Would Jesus Wear a Rolex lyrics]

Woke up this mornin', turned on the tv set
There in livin' color
Was somethin' I can't forget
This man was preachin' at me, yeah
Layin' on the charm askin' me for twenty
With ten-thousand on his arm
He wore designer clothes
And a big smile on his face
Sellin' me salvation while they
Sang Amazin' Grace askin' me for money
When he had all the signs of wealth
I almost wrote a check out, yeah
Then I asked myself

Would He wear a pinky ring
Would He drive a fancy car?
Would His wife wear furs and diamonds
Would His dressin' room have a star?
If He came back tomorrow
Well there's somethin' I'd like to know
Could ya tell me, would Jesus wear a Rolex
On His television show
Would Jesus be political if He
Came back to earth?
Have His second home in Palm Springs, yeah
A try to hide His worth?
Take money, from those poor folks
When He comes back again
And admit He's talked to
All them preachers who
Say they been a talkin' to Him?

Just ask ya' self, Would He wear a pinky ring
Would He drive a fancy car?
Would His wife wear furs and diamonds
Would His dressing room have a star?
If He came back tomorrow
Well there's somethin' I'd like to know:
Could ya tell me, would Jesus wear a Rolex
Would jesus wear a Rolex
Would Jesus wear a Rolex
On His television show ooh ooh?
