Rockabilly Rhythm In My Jesus Soul


I don’t sing about any of those sinful ways

Rockabilly gospel is the kind of music I play

I don’t expect that Jesus is my biggest fan

I just hope he will tolerate me all that he can


If Jesus sends me to Hell /for singing rockabilly 

I’ll be real sorry for that

It would then be way too late/ for any kind of forgiveness 

for this old rockabilly cat

But Jesus knows every heart/ of this I rightly know


I’ve got that rockabilly rhythm in my Jesus soul


That rockabilly beat /makes me want to move my feet

Just like in church when I’m moved to leave my seat

I’ll go out singing until /the good Lord decides

What he wants to do with/ this earthly sinner's hide


If Jesus sends me to Hell /for singing rockabilly 

I’ll be real sorry for that

It would then be way too late/ for any kind of forgiveness

for this old rockabilly cat

But Jesus knows every heart/ of this I rightly know


I’ve got that rockabilly rhythm in my Jesus soul


That rockabilly beat makes me want to move my feet

Just like in church when I’m moved to leave my seat

I’ll go out singing until the good Lord decides

What he wants to do with this earthly sinner's hide


If Jesus sends me to Hell /for singing rockabilly 

I’ll be real sorry for that

It would then be way too late /for any kind of forgiveness

for this old rockabilly cat

But Jesus knows every heart of this I rightly know


I’ve got that rockabilly rhythm in my Jesus soul
