Plastic Jesus
R.F. Seabury
tabbed by Ed Yaekle
Capo 2, standard chord formations
I don t care if it rains or freezes
as long as I ve got my plastic Jesus
riding on the dashboard of my car
Through my trials and tribulations
and my travels through many nations
with my plastic Jesus I ll go far
[Chorus]
Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus
riding on the dashboard of my car
He won t slip, He won t slide
Cause His feet are magnitized
riding on the dashboard of my car
Riding down a thoroughfare
With His nose up in the air
(a) wreck might be ahead but He don t mind
Trouble coming, He don t see
He just keeps his eyes on me
and any other thing that lies behind
Repeat [Chorus] (x2)
Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus
riding on the dashboard of my car
Though the sunshine on His back
Makes Him peel and chip and crack
a little patchin keeps Him up to par
Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus
riding on the dashboard of my car
Once His robe was snowy white
Now it ain t quite so bright
Stained by the smoke of my cigar
If I weave around at night
and the po-lice think I m tight
they never find my bottle though they ask
Plastic Jesus Shelters me
For His head comes off you see
He s hollow and I use Him for a flask
Repeat [Chorus]
Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus
riding on the dashboard of my car
Ride with me and have a dram
of the blood of the Lamb
Plastic Jesus is a holy bar
