Thread Name: Lyr Req: Cool Hand Luke / Plastic Jesus
Subject: Cool Hand Luke / Plastic Jesus
Cool Hand Luke (with Paul Newman) is one of my favorite movies. There's a song in there that Luke (Paul Newman) sings and plays on banjo. As best as I can figure out form the list of songs on the sound track, the song is Plastic Jesus. The lyrics I've found for it though are diffferent than in the movie. I'm looking for the song that goes:

So get yourself a sweet Madonna dressed in rhinestones sittin' on a peddestall, of abalone shell. Going eighty I ain't scary 'cause I got the Virgin Mary assuring me that I won't go to hell.

If you have what I'm looking for please let me know.
