Came
to town on an old freight train
He jumped off in the pouring rain
Everybody said he's insane
Just a low-down, no-account hobo
Made his bed near the county bridge The city folks said,
hey,
that's not his
They signed a petition,
they're gonna get rid of that low-down,
no-account white trash
What if Jesus comes back like that On
an old freight train in a hobo hat?
Will we let him in or turn our back?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
She was born into drug abuse She couldn't help what her mama used
It wasn't like she got to choose Now she's laying there all alone
Got a monkey
on her back The nurses say they never saw a smile like
that Doctors said she might stand a chance
If somebody takes her home What if Jesus comes back like that?
Two months early,
hooked on crack Will we let him in or turn our back?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
Nobody said life is fair We've all got a cross to bear
But when it gets a little hard to care
Just think about him hanging there
Came to earth on a cold,
dark night A single star is only light
Maybe born that silent night A manger for his bed
What if Jesus comes back like that?
Where will he find our hearts are at?
Will he let a sinner turn his back?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
Will he cry when he sees where our hearts are at?
Will he let a sinner turn his back?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
What if Jesus comes back like that?
