Gimme a Ride to Heaven Boy
Lyricist:Terry Allen
Well, I was caught up with myself On the highway at night Drivin' like a bat outta hell When I beheld an amazing sight
It was a lonely apparition By the roadside, standing there With his thumb out in the wilderness And a halo in his hair
He said, 'Gimme a ride to heaven boy I'll show you paradise Yeah, gimme a ride to heaven boy My name is Jesus Christ'
So, I come screeching to a halt I said, 'Hop on in' He says, 'Thanks a lot for the lift I forgive you of your sins'
'Yeah, I just come from Jerusalem Where things are going bad Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy I need to talk to my dad'
He said 'Gimme a ride to heaven boy I'll show you paradise Yeah gimme a ride to heaven boy My name is Jesus Christ'
So I come screeching to a halt I said, 'Hop on in' He says, 'Thanks a lot for the lift I forgive you of your sins'
'Yeah I just come from Jerusalem Where things are going bad Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy I need to talk to my dad'
Well, I didn't know what to do So I jammed her down in gear Kinda kicked my feet beneath the seat I was trying to hide the beer
Ah, but he just grinned and said, 'My friend I know you must think it's odd But you got nothin' to fear about drinkin' a beer If you share it with the Son of God'

'Yeah I just come from Jerusalem Where things are going bad Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy I need to talk to my dad'
Well I saw good news in his baby blues So I stomped it on the floor I said, 'You have to show me how to get there I ain't been before'
'Well it a hard place to find' he said 'But I'll give you a little clue It ain't somewhere up in the air Its sittin' right here inside with you'
Then right in the middle of that perfect smile From his robes he pulled a gun An stuck it up beside my head and said 'How's this for Kingdom come?'
Well I pulled off scared but I heard him say As he left me beneath the stars 'The Lord moves in mysterious ways And tonight, my son [unverified]He gonna use your car'
He said, 'Gimme a ride to heaven boy I'll show you paradise Yeah, gimme a ride to heaven boy My name is Jesus Christ'
So I come screeching to a halt I said, 'Hop on in' He says, 'Thanks a lot for the lift I forgive you of your sins'
'Yeah, I just come from Jerusalem Where things are going bad Ah, gimme a ride to heaven boy I need to talk to my dad'
