| Sweet Jesus, come and save me
|
| I’ve been weak and gone astray
|
| Take me down to the water and wash my sins away
|
| Sweet Jesus, I believe
|
| I have no faith in the word you say
|
| Make me clean, make me pure again
|
| Make me ready for the judgment day
|
| Cause the long way round is sometimes the only way home
|
| Yeah, the long way round is sometimes the only way home, the only way home,
|
| the only way home
|
| Lay my hands on the Bible and swear to the good Lord above
|
| I’ll make amends for my sinful ways and give myself up to your love
|
| No more whiskey or whoring
|
| Or fighting like an alley cat
|
| 'Cause in the eyes of the Lord it don’t matter where you’re from
|
| It just matters where you’re at
|
| Cause the long way round is sometimes the only way home
|
| Yeah, the long way round is sometimes the only way home, the only way home,
|
| the only way home
|
| I ain’t always been an honest man
|
| And I’ve never been as white as snow
|
| Travel a dark and dirty road
|
| Then you reap just what I sow
|
| Sweet Jesus, be my saviour
|
| Come and lay your hands on me
|
| Count me in for the resurrection
|
| Heaven for eternity
|
| Cause the long way round is sometimes the only way home
|
| Yeah, the long way round is sometimes the only way home
|
| Cause the long way round is sometimes the only way home
|
| Yeah, the long way round is sometimes the only way home, the only way home,
|
| the only way home |
