Like Jesus Does

I'm a long-gone Waylon song gone by
I'm a backroads sinner at a tent revival
But she believes in me like she believes her Bible
And loves me like Jesus does

I'm a lead foot leaning on a souped-up Chevy
I'm a good old boy, drinking whiskey and rye on the levee
But she carries me when my sins make me heavy
And loves me like Jesus does

All the crazy in my dreams
Both my broken wings
Every single piece of everything I am
Yeah, she knows the man I ain't
She forgives me when I can't
The devil, man, no, he don't stand a chance
'Cause she loves me like Jesus does

I always thought she'd give up on me one day
Wash her hands of me, leave me staring down some runway
But I thank God each night, and twice on Sunday
That she loves me like Jesus does

Now, all the crazy in my dreams
Both my broken wings
Every single piece of who I am
Yeah, she knows the man I ain't
And she forgives me when I can't
And the devil, man, no, he don't have a prey
'Cause she loves me like Jesus does

Yes, she knows the man I ain't
She forgives me when I can't
That devil, man, he don't stand a chance
'Cause she loves me like Jesus does
