Well, me and Jesus we got our own things going
Me and Jesus we got it all worked out
Me and Jesus we got our own things going
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about.

Well, I know a man that once was a sinner
I know a man that once was a drunk
I know a man that once was a loser
He went out one day and made an altar right out of a stump.

Me and Jesus we got our own things going
Me and Jesus we got it all worked out
Me and Jesus we got our own things going
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about.

Jesus brought me thruough all of my troubles
Jesus brought me through all of my trials
Yes, Jesus brought me through all of my heartaches
And I know why my Jesus isn't gonna forsake me now.

'Cause me and Jesus we got our own things going
Me and Jesus we got it all worked out
Me and Jesus we got our own things going
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about.

We can't afford any fancy preaching
We can't afford any fancy church
We can't afford any fancy singing
But you know Jesus got a lotta poor people out doing his work.

Me and Jesus we got our own things going
Me and Jesus we got it all worked out
Me and Jesus we got our own things going
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about.

Me and Jesus we got our own things going
Me and Jesus we got it all worked out
Me and Jesus we got our own things going
We don't need anybody to tell us what it's all about...
