lyrics

Gimme a Jesus born of a man
Chip on his shoulder, foot on the floor
One hand on the wheel and something to prove
Gimme a new Jesus

Gimme a Jesus who's getting around
Eyes on the prize, an ear that's tuned
To the sound of a sinner with nothing to loose
Gimme and new, gimme a new Jesus

Gimme a Jesus who knows how to live
Making a noise, raising some Hell
Maybe giving the devil a little more than his due
Gimme a new, gimme a new

One without pity or mercy or grace
Black hearted hater with no blood to waste
Hot for the kill or the thrill of the chase

Gimme a Jesus who's playing to win
Taking what's his not taking the fall
For the sins of the many, crimes of the few
Gimme a new Jesus

Gimme a Jesus who knows when he's beat
Down on his knees, turning his tail
In the heat of the battle, the moment of truth
Giimme a new, gimme a new Jesus
