If I could have a beer with Jesus Heaven knows I'd sip it nice and slowI'd try to pick a place that ain't too crowded Or gladly go wherever he wants to goYou can bet I'd order up a couple talks And tell the waitress to put them on my tabI'd be sure to let him do the talkin' Careful when I got the chance to askTell me, how'd you turn the other chick To save a sorry soul like me?Do you hear the prayers I send? And what happens when life ends?And when you think you're coming back again? I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe itIf I could have a beer with Jesus If I could have a beer with JesusI'd put my whole paycheck in that jukebox And I'd fill it up with nothing but the good stuffI'd sit somewhere and we couldn't see a clock And ask him, how'd you turn the other chickTo save a sorry soul like me? Have you been there from the start?How'd you change a sinner's heart? And is heaven really just beyond the stars?I'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it If I could have a beer with JesusHe can probably only stay for just a couple rounds But I hope and pray he'd stay until we shut that old place downAsk him, how'd you turn the other chick To save a sorry soul like me?What's on the other side? Is mom and daddy alright? And if it ain't no trouble, tell them I said hiI'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it If I could have a beer with JesusI'd tell everyone, but no one would believe it If I could have a beer with Jesus
