Johnny Cash - You Can't Beat Jesus Christ lyrics
He was born to be known as everybody's brother 
He is the Father, Son and Mary is His mother 
He is a 'scuse my slanguage 
Well, a compound country kinda guy 
(Yes, He is) 
Ain't no way to get around it 
You just can't beat Jesus Christ 
(No, you can't) 
Well I used to crank and drank 
Until my back was to the floor 
I'd take it to the limit 
Then I'd try to get some more 
Yeah, when it came to gamblin' 
Well, Lord I'd know how to roll them dice 
(Yes, I would) 
Ain't no reason to deny it 
I have been saved by Jesus Christ 
Yes, I have 
(Praise the Lord guitar) Johnny Cash - You Can't Beat Jesus Christ - http://motolyrics.com/johnny-cash/you-cant-beat-jesus-christ-lyrics.html
Even though I am a sinner 
He will always be my friend 
Well, He starts in the middle 
And He does not have an end 
And when my soul was held for ransom 
Yeah, He is the one who paid the price 
Ain't no two ways about it 
I owe it all to Jesus Christ 
(Praise the Lord harmonica) 
He was born to be known as everybody's brother 
He is the Father, Son and Mary is His mother 
He is a 'scuse my slanguage 
Well, a compound country kinda guy 
(Yes, He is) 
Ain't no way to get around it 
You just can't beat Jesus Christ 
(I mean it, that's true)
