jeff bates - he wasn't like us lyrics
he wasn’t like us by jeff bates
we didn’t know for sure, but everybody said
that ol’ boy ain’t right in the head, he’s a little slow
we’d hide in the bushes not making a sound
when he’d walk by we’d push him down on that dirt road
i was just as guilty as my friends
we had a lot of laughs at his expense
chorus:
he wasn’t like us, he wasn’t kool
he’d just smile even while we were being cruel
he stood out, he didn’t fit in
but we kept throwing the stones, no, we didn’t let up on him
he never said a mean word, no, he never even made a fuss
he wasn’t like us
later on he made a name in our town
for hanging out and running around with the rough crowd
they were boozers and losers and low cl-ss broads
but he saw good in ’em n0body else saw & he brought it out
then the rumors started flyin’ that he was some kind of holy man
but we set him straight & told him to his face, he was a crazy man
repeat chorus
well, i remember the day he got in trouble with the law
they cussed him & kicked him & mocked him & whipped him and they nailed him to the cross
repeat chorus
he wasn’t like us, he didn’t fit in
and i fell down on my knees & wept for him
he never said a mean word, no, he never even made a fuss
he never did nothing wrong, all he ever did was love
