Why Don't You Look Into Jesus Lyrics

Sippin' whisky from a paper cup
You drown your sorrows til you can't stand up
Take a look at what you've done to yourself
Why don't you put the bottle back on the shelf

Yellow fingered from your cigarettes
Your hands are shakin' while your body sweats
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer

Gonorrhea on Valentine's Day
You're still looking for the perfect lay
Think rock'n'roll will set you free
Honey, you'll be dead before you're 33

Shooting junk til you're half insane
Broken needle in your purple vein
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer

Work all night, sleep all day
You take your money, throw it all away
You say you're gonna be a superstar
But you never hung around enough to find out who you really are

Think back to when you were a child
Your soul was free, your heart ran wild
Each day was different, and life was a thrill
You knew tomorrow would be better still

But things have changed, you're much older now
If you're unhappy, and you don't know how
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer

Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer
Why don't you look into Jesus
He got the answer
He got the answer

Take a look
Take a look
