Messin With Jesus

Intro: C 
 


Verse 

C 
Yeah cigarettes taste good to me 
C 
But the body is a temple I read so I 
G                        C 
I ain't messin' with Jesus 
C 
I love drivin' fast down a country road 
C 
But a voice in my head says take it slow 
G                           C 
So I, I ain't messin' with Jesus 

C 
I wanna keep him on my good side 
C 
Keep him on my bad side a little less of the time 
F 
I never plan on being perfect 
F 
I'm a back slidin' serpent of a man most of the time 
                G 
But I walk the line 
G                         F 
Until I get to the other side 
                           C 
No I ain't messin' with Jesus
