Jesus Is On The Wire [Live with Symphony Orchestra]

Take off your old coat
And roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road
To travel, I believe

Run down church
Red clay
River covered
In a smoky haze

Sunday morning
The fire is out
Sunday morning
No one about

The earth is soft
This time of year
Boots get caked
From there to here

Down the road
Route 25
They found this boy
Barely alive

Jesus is on the wire
So far away
Higher and higher
Jesus is on the wire

Took him down
Off the fence
Cold as ice
Almost dead
They said that he
That he slept with guys
They said that he
Deserved to die

Jesus is on the wire
So far away
Higher and higher
Jesus is on the wire
