Brain don’t bail on me
Words don’t fail me now
Heart don’t crumble on me
Please

Brain don’t bail on me
Words don’t fail me now
Heart don’t crumble on me
Please

Brain don’t bail on me
Words don’t fail me now
Heart don’t crumble on me
Please

Jesus –
he ain’t no babysitter
Jesus –
he ain’t no coddler now

Jesus –
he ain’t no babysitter
Jesus –
he ain’t no coddler now

My mind is racing
My brain is tracing the well-worn paths and
Thinking the same three thoughts
That keep me
On a string
Tied up on a chain

And back to the point
Where
I began

My mind is racing
My brain is tracing the well-worn paths and
Thinking the same three thoughts
That keep me
On a string
Tied up on a chain

And back to the point
Where
I began

And it’s Jesus –
he ain’t no babysitter
now Jesus –
he ain’t no coddler now
And it’s Jesus –
he ain’t no babysitter
now Jesus –
he ain’t no coddler now

You gotta work for it
you’ve got everything you need
but you must work for it
‘cause he ain’t gonna hold your hand, now

Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Oh fuckin’ Jesus

Brain don’t bail on me
Words don’t fail me now
Womb envelop me,
PLEASE
