Neon Jesus

Last night I took a walk out State Street
Past the tattoo parlors and the topless bars
With one eye shut and my jaw all swoll up
I was tasting blood and I was seeing stars
From a rooftop down by the river
I saw a light and I heard a buzz
People talk about a neon Jesus
I looked up and, buddy, there he was
Glow on, neon Jesus
What a sight, what a sight to see
Glow on, neon Jesus
Shine your light, shine your light on me
Shine your light on me
People talk about Jesus, they talk about Allah
They talk about the way things used to be
People talk about hell, people talk about heaven
They talk about people like you and me
I know there’s a light in the darkness
Angels don’t mean you no harm
On a rooftop down by the river
He’s waiting there with open arms
Glow on, neon Jesus
What a sight, what a sight to see
Glow on, neon Jesus
Shine your light, shine your light on me
Shine your light on me
Glow on, neon Jesus
Glow on, neon Jesus
Glow on, neon Jesus
What a sight, what a sight to see
Glow on
Glow on
Glow on
Shine your light on
Shine your light, shine your light on me
