The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor
Lyricist:Dallas Frazier, Sanger D Shafer
Among the local taverns, there'll be a slack in business 'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent Among the local women, there'll be a slack in cheatin' 'Cause Jesse won't be be steppin' out again
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm They all cried, 'Hallelujah', when Jesse's head went under 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
The scars on Jesse's knuckles are more than just respected The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money And the black eye of the law will soon be well
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm They all cried, 'Hallelujah', when Jesse's head went under Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
Well, from now on Nancy Taylor can proudly speak to neighbors And tell how much Jesse took up with little Jim Now Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family And Franklin County's got a lot more man
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm They all cried, 'Hallelujah', when Jesse's head went under 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
Yes, they baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm They all cried, 'Hallelujah', when Jesse's head went under 'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
Yeah, this time he went under for the Lord
