ApologetiX - Hey Zaccheus lyrics

Parody of "Take It Easy" by The Eagles Well, He was comin' down the road Windin' through Jericho They had everyone in town in line Folks along the road Made movement kind of slow We wanted them to step aside Make way for Jesus, make way for Jesus Down in the crowd of all those people was Zaccheus* Life was tough for this short man He was despised because of sin There was no place where he could stand And look at Jesus Well, now Zaccheus was short So he climbed a sycamore tree Just the right height to see He could see the Lord But he felt for sure "Jesus wouldn't wanna look at me! Could He save me? Am I crazy? I've got a past that most people would say was shady Would He choose to forgive my sins? Or am I going out on a limb?" Just then the Lord looked up at him Said, "Hey, Zaccheus!" LEAD So there was silence in the road While He looked up and spoke And the world was hanging' on the line Jesus hollered up there, "Let's both go to supper At your house tonight." They said, "Jesus, don't be facetious Don't hang around immoral people like Zaccheus!" He said, "Baby, don't detain me! I've gotta go, 'cause this sheep's lost I'm gonna save him!" Wooo Wooo Wooo Wooo (4X) All you gotta see is... we all need saved by Jesus Luke 19:3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but being a short man he could not, because of the crowd.
