Drunk On Jesus

He was doing acid
At his uncle's house
Reading the Bible
Laying on the bed
The truth poured in
Like torrential rain
As the Holy Spirit
Doped his head

He got Drunk On Jesus
Speaking in tongues
He saw the light
Like Paul on the road
Discarded his possessions
Cos he had to preach
He knew he'd been called
Drunk On Jesus

It was two weeks later
At a Pentecostal church
Rolling with the Saints
Dancing in the aisles
Somebody said
Some girl had a demon
He threw her on the floor
Drove that demon out

He got Drunk On Jesus
Speaking in tongues
He saw the light
Like Paul on the road
Discarded his possessions
Cos he had to preach
He knew he'd been called
Drunk On Jesus

Two months later
He forgot how to pray
Got shock treatments
In the VA

He got Drunk On Jesus
Speaking in tongues
He saw the light
Like Paul on the road
Discarded his possessions
Cos he had to preach
He knew he'd been called
Drunk On Jesus

Compelling narrative. Could be a movie as well.
