I was on my way to somewhere to the Mexicali sand A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands He told me some stories - I told him some lies Light shone through my darkness, cast shadows from my mind His eyes they looked right through me Oh I knew he carried weight Something real was going down that day Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound Oh we talked about the world gone bad The troubles we had seen We talked about the dirt Brown shoes he wore on his feet He said I'm tired and weary I've been riding a long way Let me rest my eyes now Let me drift away He acted Like he knew me Then he fell asleep I had no More secrets I could keep Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound Somewhere in the sunlit mornin' I stepped off the bus in the Middle of the city of angels And that long haired hippie was up And gone where devils run and play and lust Lookin for the danger Oh and I looked at my feet and Saw the shoes that he had worn and Thank God for that beautiful stranger Was that Jesus Was that Jesus Was that Jesus Oh I told him I'm a sinner He said that's o.k. I'm not here to change you anyway He was gone when I turned around Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound And I'll rise again Ain't no power on earth can keep me down And I'll rise, I'll rise again Oh ain't no death can keep me in the ground Was that Jesus
