Chocolate Jesus

Well, I don’t go to church on Sunday
Don’t get on my knees to pray
Don’t memorize the books of the bible
I got my own special wayI know Jesus loves me

Maybe just a little bit more
Fall down on my knees every Sunday
At Zerelda Lee’s candy storeWell, I’ve got to be a chocolate Jesus
Make me feel good inside

Got to be a chocolate Jesus
Keep me satisfiedWell, I don’t want no Abba Zabba
Don’t want no Almond Joy
There ain’t nothing better

Suitable for this boyWell,
it’s the only thing that can pick me up
It’s better than a cup of gold
See, only a chocolate Jesus

Can satisfy my soulWhen the weather gets rough and it’s whiskey in the shade
It’s best to wrap your savior up in cellophane
He flows…
