ray stevens - would jesus wear a rolex lyrics

woke up this mornin’, turned on the t.v. set.
there in livin’ color, was somethin’ i can’t forget.
this man was preachin’ at me, yeah, layin’ on the charm
askin’ me for twenty, with ten-thousand on his arm.
he wore designer clothes, and a big smile on his face
sellin’ me salvation while they sang amazin’ grace.
askin’ me for money, when he had all the signs of wealth.
i almost wrote a check out, yeah, then i asked myself

(chorus)

would he wear a pinky ring, would he drive a fancy car?
would his wife wear furs and diamonds, would his dressin’ room have a star?
if he came back tomorrow, well there’s somethin’ i’d like to know
could ya tell me, would jesus wear a rolex on his television show.

would jesus be political if he came back to earth?
have his second home in palm springs, yeah, a try to hide his worth?
take money, from those poor folks, when he comes back again,
and admit he’s talked to all them preachers who say they been a talkin’ to him?

(chorus)

just ask ya’ self, would he wear a pinky ring,
would he drive a fancy car?
would his wife wear furs and diamonds, would his dressing room have a star?
if he came back tomorrow, well there’s somethin’ i’d like to know:
could ya tell me, would jesus wear a rolex,
would jesus wear a rolex
would jesus wear a rolex
on his television show-ooh-ooh?
