Country song from around 80's

something like me and jesus got our own thing going.. a church lady " a self ritchios bitty" comes in bar and catches him and a pretty young lassie

"ME AND JESUS" by: Tom T Hall


(CHORUS):
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
Me and Jesus got it all worked out
Me and Jesus got our own thing goin'
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about

I know a man who one was a sinner
I know a man who once was a drunk
And I know a man who once was a loser
He went out one day and made an altar out of a stump

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

(CHORUS)

We can't afford any fancy preachin'
We can't afford any fancy church
We can't afford any fancy singin'
You know Jesus' got a lot of
Poor people out doin' his work

(CHORUS)

While tom to hall did have the song Me and Jesus, the one you are looking for is The Lord Knows I'm drinking, and it is either by Hank Thompsin or Hank Locklin.

if part of the song goes:

hello mrs. johnson
you self righteous bitty,
i don't need your preachin
and i don't need your pity

then it is definately The lord knows I'm Drinking............my poor grandfather would start singing it every time he hit the bottle..........................lol

and after double checking, mp3 rocket, has that song listed by Cal Smith
it is possible that name could actually be wrong.even though the song would be the version you are looking for.

THE LORD KNOWS I'M DRINKING--artist Carl Smith

Hello Mrs. Johnson
you self-righteous woman
sunday school teacher
what brings you out slummin'
do you reckon the preacher
would aprrove where you are
standing here visiting
with a backslidin' christian
in a neighborhood bar

well yes that's my bottle
and yes that's my glass
and I see you're eyeballin'
this pretty young lass
it ain't none of your business
but yes she's with me
and we don't need no sermon
you self-righteous woman
just let us be

-chorus-

the lord knows i'm drinkin'
and runnin' around
and he don't need your loud mouth, informin' the town
the lord knows i'm sinnin'
and sinnin' ain't right
but me and the good lord gonna have us a good talk later tonight

good-bye Mrs. Johnson,
you self-righteous biddy
i don't need your prachin
and i don't need your pity
so go back to whatever
you hypocrits do
and when i talk to heaven
be nice and i'll put in a good word for you


-chorus-


HOPE its what you wanted

The best version (in my opinion obviously) is by Cowboy Mouth. They do an awesome job on this one...
