G D
GWhen Jesus Christ was 12 years old
CHe stumbled down the streets of Marlboro Golds
G EA little thirsty for a hand to hold
A Dor anyone to elevate his name
GBurned a juniper smudge at dawn
CDanced round with nothing but his skivvies on
G ETo a yet unwritten Ray Wylie Hubbard song
A DBut he knew every lyric all the same
G DHe cried out "Allah!" in the early morn,
G C"Where that I was somehow a human born,
G EI'd cast our daemons & calm the storm
A Dfrom the window of my little red Pontiac."
G C GJesus Christ likes fast cars
G DPedal to the metal because he's Lord
G C GNever had a whip that didn't have two doors
G D G DJesus Christ likes fast cars
GWith a snap of God's fingers the dead was done
CJesus woke up as the Chosen One
G EHe was swaddled in the tunic of a virgin
A Dlistening for jingling of keys
GStretched his legs out, learned to walk
CMemorized scripture till he could talk
G EBut he daydreamed stick shifts & peeling off
A DInto a Palestinian Dream
G DSo he cried out, "Lord if this cup should pass?
G CI don't wanna live here if I can't drive fast."
G ESo God opened the sky up & welcomed him back
A Dwith the keys to a little red Pontiac.
G C GJesus Christ likes fast cars
G DPedal to the metal because he's Lord
G C GNever had a whip that didn't have two doors
G D G DJesus Christ likes fast cars, Testify
[Solo]
GNow he's burning through space in a blaze of smoke
CPeeling wheels through the stars with a manual choke
G EHe's playing Judas Priest loud on the radio
A Dwith a little hint of humor in his eye.
G DTurned the oceans to wine on a planet out there
G CGets all the animals drunk and he doesn't care
G EAnd every once in a while he remembers back here
A DWhere he first got his longing to drive.
G C GJesus Christ likes fast cars
G DMagical hooch and loud guitars
G C GNever had a whip that didn't have two doors
G D G DJesus Christ likes fast cars
