Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Boy gets a guitar and starts writin' songs
'Bout whiskey and women and gettin' too stoned
He got all three at the first show he played
Hometown said, 'I don't think Jesus done it that way'

[Verse 2]
Boy moves to city, lives fast and goes hard
Starts chasin' the devil through honky-tonk bars
Ignorin' the voices in his head that say
'I don't think Jesus done it this way'

[Chorus]
If I was Him I'd say, 'To hell with you, ain't no helpin' you
Find someone else to give Heaven to, I'm tellin' you
I'd shame me, I'd blame me, I'd make me pay for my mistakes
But I don't think Jesus does it that way
