Jesus Saves

Savatage

Jesus Saves

Jesus was a talker
Just an out-of-place New Yorker
He hung out on the boulevard
He was sellin' nickel candies
He was saving up all his quarters
Bought himself a cheap guitar
Started playing' bars
The kids came in their cars
Hear them shouting at the stage
Jesus saves
Jesus saves
Yes, He does
Jesus saves
You know, Jesus started changin'
Things got really strange
He saw his tee shirts everywhere
He started missing shows
The band came down to blows
But Jesus He just didn't care
Things got out of hand
And so he quit the band
But still the critics they would rave

Jesus saves
Jesus saves
Yes, He does
Jesus saves

So the dice were cast
Today became the past
Jesus just disappeared
He was headed for New York
Or so his label thought
And there he gave away the years
Last seen drinking wine
Beneath a flashing sign
Promising salvation to strays

Jesus saves
Jesus saves
Yes, He does
Jesus Saves

Jesus era um falador
Um nova iorquino deslocado
Ficava na avenida
Vendendo doces baratos
Guardando todas as suas moedas
Comprou para si uma guitarra barata
Começou a tocar em bares
Os garotos vinham em seus carros
Você os ouvia gritando para o palco
Jesus salva
Jesus salva
Sim, Ele faz
Jesus salva
Sabe, Jesus começou a mudar
As coisas começaram a ficar realmente estranhas
Ele via suas camisetas por toda parte
Ele começou a faltar em shows
A banda começou a brigar
Mas Jesus já não se importava mais
As coisas saíram do controle
E então ele deixou a banda
Mas ainda sim os críticos elogiavam

Jesus salva
Jesus salva
Sim, Ele faz
Jesus salva

Então os dados foram lançados
Hoje se tornou o passado
E Jesus Ele simplesmente desapareceu
Ele estava indo para Nova York
Ou assim pensava sua gravadora
E lá ele passou os anos
Visto pela última vez bebendo vinho
Debaixo de um letreiro piscante
Prometendo salvação aos perdidos
