Jesus Got a Tight Grip Songtext
Well, I ain′t never been an angel
I ain't never been called a saint
Yeah, I′ve decorated every bar in town
With a big red coat of paint
But good thing I had a good raisin'
For all the hell I've raised since then
When that roll is called up yonder
I know they′ve gonna let me in
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can't grab hold
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone, I know where I'll go
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Now I′ve been a little more cold beer
Than holy water, it's true
More Saturday night on an old bar stool
Than a Sunday morning pew
But even old Hank Williams
Finally, saw the light
And, oh, hallelujah, I have too
And it ain′t just the neon kind
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain′t letting go, He ain't letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can′t grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I′m gone, I know where I'll go
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Whoa, I got a long, long way to go
Whoa, but I'm gonna get there I know
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain′t letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone, I know where I′ll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Yeah, He does, and He ain′t letting go
I ain't never been called a saint
Yeah, I′ve decorated every bar in town
With a big red coat of paint
But good thing I had a good raisin'
For all the hell I've raised since then
When that roll is called up yonder
I know they′ve gonna let me in
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can't grab hold
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone, I know where I'll go
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Now I′ve been a little more cold beer
Than holy water, it's true
More Saturday night on an old bar stool
Than a Sunday morning pew
But even old Hank Williams
Finally, saw the light
And, oh, hallelujah, I have too
And it ain′t just the neon kind
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain′t letting go, He ain't letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can′t grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I′m gone, I know where I'll go
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Whoa, I got a long, long way to go
Whoa, but I'm gonna get there I know
′Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain′t letting go
The devil reaches out, but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain′t letting go, He ain′t letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone, I know where I′ll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Yeah, He does, and He ain′t letting go
