Subject: RE: Methedrine Blues-a question
Thanks, Guest. Buddy writes a lot of hard hitting songs on social issues. He has 7 or 8 CDs out and he writes some great stuff. One satirical one I especially like is 'Jesus Loves Me (More than He Loves You)' Starts out:

"Oh, I know it's cold sleeping in your car
But you really are to blame for where you are
I can see that you're down to skin and bones
But it's not my fault you're starving all alone

"You surely cannot punish my success
Just because my way of life has been so blessed
The reason why you ain't got no food or any shoes
Is 'cause Jesus loves me more than he loves you."

And goes on for another couple more verses.
