Soo Line Loons - Jesus Come Back Lyrics

Bury me in my work boots
Don’t want that coroner to change my shoes
I know he’s got enough work to do
No, don’t put me in no suit and tie
Leave me in my work boots when I die
Jesus why don’t you come back now
I think it’s the only way that I’m getting out
Cause forty days in your desert don’t seem so bad
When I’m staring down the barrel of forty hours for forty years
And it’s all I have
The wolves are howling at the door
Well come on in boys cause it ain’t locked
If you’re looking for some place to eat
I guess we’re both just gonna starve
Jesus why don’t you come back now
I think it’s the only way that I’m getting out
Cause forty days in your desert don’t seem that bad
When I’m staring down the barrel of forty hours for forty years
And it’s all I have
Now where’s that devil with a drink, when you need him
I’ll be at the pearly gates, but if you won’t let me in
I’ll be God Damned before I go back to work again
Now where’s that devil with a drink, when a man needs him
Jesus why don’t you come back now

Bury me in my work boots
Don’t want that coroner to change my shoes
I know he’s got enough work to do
No, don’t put me in no suit and tie
Leave me in my work boots when I die
Jesus why don’t you come back now
I think it’s the only way that I’m getting out
Cause forty days in your desert don’t seem so bad
When I’m staring down the barrel of forty hours for forty years
And it’s all I have
The wolves are howling at the door
Well come on in boys cause it ain’t locked
If you’re looking for some place to eat
I guess we’re both just gonna starve
Jesus why don’t you come back now
I think it’s the only way that I’m getting out
Cause forty days in your desert don’t seem that bad
When I’m staring down the barrel of forty hours for forty years
And it’s all I have
Now where’s that devil with a drink, when you need him
I’ll be at the pearly gates, but if you won’t let me in
I’ll be God Damned before I go back to work again
Now where’s that devil with a drink, when a man needs him
Jesus why don’t you come back now
