Jesus Make Up My Dying Bed

Since me and Jesus got: married

Haven't been a minute apart

With the receiver in my hand

And re-ligion in my heart.

I can ring 'im up easy

Ahhhhhh

Oh well

Ring 'im up easy

Go make up my

Mmmmm

Weeping that he ain't: lost

Late Friday evening

Hanging on the Cross

Hanging there in misery

Ahhhhhhh

Oh well

Hanging there in misery

Go make up my

Mmmmmmmm

Mmmmmm mmmmm

Jesus gon' make up my

Late Friday evening

Made poor Martha moan

Jesus said to his de-ciples

Come and carry my mother along

Dying will be easy

Ahhhhhhhh

Dying will be easy

Dying will be easy

Jesus gon make up my

I'm dead and: buried

Somebody said that I was lost

When it get down to Jordan

Have to bear my body across

Done gone over

Ahhhhhhhhh

Oh well

Done gone over

Make up my...
