Just a Kid Songtext
von Kenny Chesney

Well, the news spread through Jerusalem
Tonight, a child is born
There are shepherds falling to their knees
And angels blowing horns

But in their golden halls, the Pharisees
Scoffed and drank their wine
They said it′s only Hebrew prophecy
We don't care, and besides

He′s just a kid, that's all He is
One more pebble in the gravel
One more rumor in the rabble
How can He be king, He's just a kid?

Well, in no time it seemed the world
Was knocking on His door
For miracles and wonders
They had never seen before


Soon the Pharisees stopped laughing
The silver sun was paid
And near the end He knelt down
In the garden and He prayed

I′m just a kid, that′s all I am
I'll need your strength to see me through it
And if it is your will, I′ll do it
But how can I be King, I'm just a kid?

Now I think about the baby
And the man at Christmas time
Of mothers, sons and fathers
And children just like mine
About the power in unselfishness, love and sacrifice
Gift that we we′re given and the price

And how the news spread through Jerusalem
Tonight, a child is born
There are shepherds falling to their knees
And angels blowing horns

I wonder how on Earth the Pharisees
Could scoffed and drink their wine
And say he's only Hebrew prophecy
We don′t care, and besides


He just a kid, that's all He is
One more pebble in the gravel
One more rumor in the rabble
And how can He be King, He's just a kid?

Oh, how can He be King
He′s just a kid?
