Me and Jesus got our own thing going Me and Jesus got it all worked out Me and Jesus got our own thing going We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about I know a man who once was a sinner I know a man who once was a drunk And I know a man who once was a looser He went out one day and made an alter out of a stump repeat #1 Jesus brought me through all of my troubles Jesus brought me through all of my trials Jesus brought me through all of my heartaches And I know that Jesus ain't gonna forsake me now repeat #1 We can't afford any fancy preaching We can't afford any fancy church We can't afford any fancy singing You know Jesus got a lot of poor people out doing his work repeat #1
