He′s got a cross on his neck
But he spends Sundays in my bed
He's my blue jean little baby with a halo on his head
He′s got lips like cherry wine
And cigarette smoke on his breath
He's got pretty long brown hair
Green eyes that look like sex
Knees down at your altar
Please don't fail me now
You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won′t you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you′re my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You're the greatest love of my life
American Jesus
Let′s drive off into the sunset
Baby we can be reborn
Walk on water in the desert
Make a saint out of a whore
Knees down at your altar
My cowboy in a crown
You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won't you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you′re my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You're the greatest love of my life
American Jesus
You got me red, white, and blue
Pledging my allegiance to you
Tell me you believe in me too
I do
Ooh, seeing stars in your eyes
No I′ve never felt so alive
We can ride 'til we die
You know all my secrets
American Jesus, baby
Won't you take me to heaven tonight?
You know you′re my weakness
American Jesus, save me
You′re the greatest love of my life
American Jesus
You got me red, white, and blue
Pledging my allegiance to you
Tell me you believe in me too
I do
Ooh, seeing stars in your eyes
No I've never felt so alive
We can ride ′til we die
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
My American Jesus
