Jesus Was a Capricorn (Owed to John Prine)

Jesus was a Capricorn,
he ate organic foods.
He believe in love and peace,
and never wore no shoes.
Long hair, beard and sandles,
and a funky bunch of friends.
Reckon they'd just nail him up
if he come down again.
'Cause everybody's gotta have somebody to look down on,
Who they can feel better than at anytime they please.
Someone doing something dirty
decent folks can frown on.
If you can't find nobody else then help yourself to me.
Eggheads cussing rednecks cussing
hippies for their hair.
Others laugh at straights who laugh at freaks who laugh at squares.
Some folks hate the whites, who hate the blacks, who hate the Klan.
Most of us hate anything that
we don't understand.
'Cause everybody's gotta have somebody to look down on,
Who they can feel better than at anytime they please.
Someone doing something dirty
decent folks can frown on.
If you can't find nobody else then help yourself to me.
Help yourself brother.
Help yourself, children.
Help yourself, Reverend.
