Hey Jesus--- -----hey, jesus, it's me. i don't usually talk to you but mybaby's gonna leave me, and there's something youmust do. i am not your faithful servant, i hang aroundsometimes with a bunch of your black sheep, but ifyou make my baby stay, i'll make it up to you andthat's a promise i will keep. hey jesus, it's me. i'm theone who talked to you yesterday and i asked youplease, please for a favor but my baby's gone away,went away anyway and i don't really think its fair,you've got the power to make us all believe in you andthen we call you in our despair, and you don't comethrough. hey jesus, it's me, i'm sorry. i don'tremember all i said, i had a few, no, too many and theywent straight to my head, made me feel like i couldargue with god but you know, it's easy for you, you gotfriends all over the world, you had the whole worldwaiting for your birth but now i ain't got nobody, idon't know what my life's worth. i'm not gonna call onyou any more. i'm sure you've got a million things todo, all i was trying to do was to get through to you, getthrough to you because when i die and i get up to yourdoors i don't even know if you're gonna let me in theplace, how come i gotta die to get a chance to talk toyou face to face?
