800 Pounds Jesus - Paul Thorn[00:00:00]
I saw a garage sale[00:00:08]
Pulled up in the yard[00:00:10]
Found a statue of jesus[00:00:11]
It was eight feet tall[00:00:13]
He held out his arms[00:00:16]
And he seemed all alone[00:00:17]
So i loaded him up[00:00:20]
And drove him home[00:00:21]
Out by my driveway he[00:00:24]
Looks down the street[00:00:26]
Long hair and sandals made[00:00:28]
Of rebar and concrete[00:00:30]
I painted him white with a long purple robe[00:00:32]
He's a rock of ages on our gravel road[00:00:36]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:00:41]
Standing taller than a tree[00:00:45]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:00:49]
A bigger man than you or me[00:00:53]
I thought loosin' my job was[00:01:05]
The end of the world[00:01:07]
Till my best pal ran off with my best girl[00:01:10]
I felt suicidal with no real friends[00:01:13]
So i walked outside with a rope in my hand[00:01:17]
Out by that statue there's a big old tree[00:01:21]
So i stood on his shoulders[00:01:25]
And i counted to three[00:01:27]
I had every intention of buying the farm[00:01:29]
But when i jumped off he caught me in his arms[00:01:33]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:01:38]
Standing taller than a tree[00:01:42]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:01:46]
A bigger man than you or me[00:01:50]
I wanted to return the favor to him[00:02:02]
Cause i never had a more solid friend[00:02:06]
So i planted some flowers[00:02:10]
All around his feet[00:02:12]
And i bought him a flock[00:02:14]
Of ceramic sheep[00:02:16]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:02:19]
Standing taller than a tree[00:02:23]
He's an eight-hundred pound jesus[00:02:27]
A bigger man than you or me[00:02:31]
He's a bigger man[00:02:35]
Than you or me[00:02:36]
