a ride back home [live][*]
Hey Jesus, can You give me a ride back home? I've been out here in this world too long on my own I won't bother You no more if You can just get me in the door Hey Jesus, can You give me a ride back home?  When I started out I was so young and so strong I just let it roll off my back when things went wrong Now it's starting to get to me, all of this inhumanity Hey Jesus, can You give me a ride back home?  You wouldn't know it by looking at me now But I was showing some promise once upon a time But it's gone now and it ain't coming back My time's come and gone, it's as simple as that  Hey Jesus, this world is too troublesome for me I try to fight off all these devils but I'm just too weak When I'm out here walking alone I feel like taking my life but I won't Too big a coward, can You give me a ride back home? Hey Jesus, can You give me a ride back home? Hey Jesus, can You give me a ride back home?
