Well I ain't never been an angel
I ain't never been called a saint
Yeah, I've decorated every bar in town
With a big red coat of paint
But good thing I had a good raisin'
For all the Hell I've raised since then
When that roll is called up yonder
I know they've gonna let me in
[Chorus]
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
[Verse 2]
Now I've been a little more cold beer
Than holy water, it's true
More Saturday night on an old bar stool
Than a Sunday morning pew
But even old Hank Williams
Finally saw the light
And, oh hallelujah, I have too
And it ain't just the neon kind
[Chorus]
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
[Bridge]
Whoa, I got a long, long way to go
Whoa, but I'm gonna get there I know
[Chorus]
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Yeah he does, and he ain't letting go
[Verse 1] Well I ain't never been an angel I ain't never been called a saint Yeah, I've decorated every bar in town With a big red coat of paint But good thing I had a good raisin' For all the Hell I've raised since then When that roll is called up yonder I know they've gonna let me in [Chorus] 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go Might have a little rust on my halo But when I'm gone I know where I'll go 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul [Verse 2] Now I've been a little more cold beer Than holy water, it's true More Saturday night on an old bar stool Than a Sunday morning pew But even old Hank Williams Finally saw the light And, oh hallelujah, I have too And it ain't just the neon kind [Chorus] 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go Might have a little rust on my halo But when I'm gone I know where I'll go 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah [Bridge] Whoa, I got a long, long way to go Whoa, but I'm gonna get there I know [Chorus] 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul And he ain't letting go, he ain't letting go Might have a little rust on my halo But when I'm gone I know where I'll go 'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul Jesus got a tight grip on my soul Yeah he does, and he ain't letting go Explain Request ×
