Plastic Jesus

Well, I don't care if it rains or freezes Long as I got my plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car Through all trials and tribulations We will travel every nation With my plastic Jesus I'll go far Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car But I'm afraid he'll have to go His magnet ruins my radio And if I have wreck he'll leave a scar Riding down a thoroughfare With his nose up in the air A wreck may be ahead, but He don't mind Trouble coming He don't see He just keeps His eyes on me And any other thing that lies behind Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car Though the sun shines on his back Makes Him peel, chip and crack A little patching keeps Him up to par When pedestrians try to cross I let them know who's boss I never blow the horn or give them warning I ride all over town Trying to run them down And it's seldom that they live to see the morning Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car His halo fits just right And I use it for a sight And they'll scatter or they'll splatter near and far If I weave around at night And the police think I'm tight They'll never find my bottle, though they ask Plastic Jesus shelters me For His head comes off, you see He's hollow, and I use Him for a flask Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car Ride with me and have a dram Of the blood of the Lamb Plastic Jesus is the holy bar Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car Once His robe was snowy white Not it isn't quite so bright Stained by the smoke of my cigar Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus Riding on the dashboard of my car But I'm afraid he'll have to go His magnet ruins my radio And if we wreck he'll leave a scar
