Lyrics:

JOHN THE BAPTIST AT THE NOWHERE BAR
SAY WAKE UP JOHN YOU DON’T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
YOU GOT A LONG DISTANCE STARE
FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
YOU MIGHT ME AN ANGEL BUT YOU LOOK LIKE HELL
HE SAID I’M LOOKIN FOR A MAN ABOUT HALF YOUR SIZE
HE DON’T SAY NOTHIN BUT HE’S SANCTIFIED
OH JOHN JOHN JOHN LOOKING FOR/WAITING ON JESUS
WELL EVERYTHING’S DIFFERENT BUT NOTHING’S CHANGED
WE’RE LIVIN OUT HERE IN THE WHISKEY RAIN
AND WE STILL NEED SHELTER FROM THE GRINDING STORM
AND WE STIILL NEED LOVE TO KEEP US WARM
HE SAID I’M LOOKIN FOR SOMEBODY WHO’S A CHILD OF GOD
NOW STAND BACK BABY I’M A LIGHTENING ROD
OH JOHN JOHN JOHN LOOKIN FOR JESUS
ALL YOU ANGEL HEADED HIPSTERS WITH THE GINSBERG HOWL
ALL YOU CROOKED LIP CON MEN ON THE PROWL
WHY DON’T YOU STOP YOUR LYIN AND LISTEN TO ME
THERE’S A HOLY MAN SITTIN IN THE BLACK GUM TREE
HE SAID I’M LOOKIN FOR SOMEBODY WHO’S HARD TO FIND
A KIND HEARTED MAN WITH A ONE TRACK MIND
OH JOHN JOHN JOHN WAITIN ON JESUS
