Hymn 43 Lyrics By Jethro Tull

    oh father high in heaven
    smile down upon your son heyhey
    who’s busy with his money games oh
    his women and his gun
    oh jesus save me

    and the unsung western hero
    killed an indian or three hey hey hey
    and then he made his name in hollywood oh
    to set the white man free
    oh jesus save me

    if jesus saves well he’d better save himself
    from the gory glory seekers who use his name in death oh
    oh jesus save me

    if jesus saves well he’d better save himself
    from the gory glory seekers who use his name in death ow
    oh jesus save me

    well i saw him in the city
    and on the mountains of the moon yeah
    his cross was rather bloody oh
    and he could hardly roll his stone
    oh jesus save me
