Tom Waits - Jesus Gonna Be Here Lyrics
Well, Jesus will be here
Be here soon
he's gonna cover us up with leaves
With a blanket from the moon
With a promise and a vow
Jesus gonna be here
Be here soon
Well I'm just gonna wait here
I don't have to shout
I have no reason and
I have no doubt
I'm gonna get myself
Unfurled from this mortal coiled up world
Because Jesus gonna be here
I got to keep my eyes open
So I can see my Lord
I'm gonna watch the horizon
For a brand new Ford
I can hear him rolling on down the lane
I said Hollywood be thy name
Jesus gonna be
Gonna be here soon
Well I've been faithful
And I've been so good
Except for drinking
But he new that I would
I'm gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found it was
And Jesus gonna be here
Be here soon

Tom Waits Jesus Gonna Be Here Comments
Going out west
What's up with Tom and the moon?
I can't believe this is literally Tom singing! He's emulated the southern black blues singer perfectly, with every nuance down pat, in a fashion like nothing short of a savant.
His broðer is her Davit,Jesus was
Well, jesus gonna be here
he gonna be here soon (yeah)
he's gonna cover us up with leaves
with a blanket from the moon (yeah)
with a promise and a vow
and a lullaby for my brow
well, jesus gonna be here
gonna be here soon
Well i'm just gonna do nothing and wait here
i don't have to shout
i've got no reason
and i've got no doubt
i'm gonna get myself unfurled
from this mortal coiled up world
jesus gonna be here
gonna be here soon
I got to keep my eyes, to keep em wide open
so i can see my lord
i'm gonna watch the horizon.
for a brand new ford
well I can hear him rolling on down the lane
i said hallowed be thy name
'cause jesus gonna be
gonna be here soon
Well i've got to keep myself, i've keep myself faithful
and you know that i've been so good
except for drinking
but he knew that i would
when i'm gonna leave this place better
than the way i found that it was
and jesus gonna be here
he be here soon
*Hollywood be thy name
I love this song
Christ almighty! Bunch of whining little bitches. You can't be happy with anything can you? It doesn't matter how we all got here. All that matters is that we are fucking here, which would make Tom happy if he were still with us today. At least we've got a media platform such as You Tube. If you don't like it, then go back to 1993. God damn.
I played this to my Mum one day 20 years ago and asked her she thought was singing it. To this day, she’s still guessing!
Tom has one of the most emotional , expressive singing voices out there. His lyrics, topics he writes about in his songs are astounding. A real asset to humanity.
This song just rocks my soul. Amen Amen Amen
I heard that 😎🤘

Well, I've got to keep myself, got to keep myself faithful
And you know that I've been so good
Except for drinking
But he knew that I would, yeah
And when I'm gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found that it was
And Jesus gonna be here
Gonna be here soon, yeah

Hallowed
Going from the ad. Soulless corporations to the complete opposite. Wonderful
True Blood brought me here.

Haha I see it. Half of the people listening to this probably don't know who Carradine is though.
TRUE BLOOD
jhenysxwjx What?
My favorite Tom song - never get tired of it.
Even the cough at the end just makes it.
great video, I need.to.initiate u
'Hollywood be thy name'... brilliant
Awesome video. Well done
I remember this song on hit radio on a program where the DeeJays could play their personal favorite tunes and I went "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT, SO AWESOME!"
Bought "Bone machine" soon after and never regretted doing so.
Every street corner should have a scruffy man with a guitar singing this song. Every mall/walmart should have about five of them walking around aimlessly with there guitars and blown out voices... There should be a line of them at the door of every fast food joint, taking turns getting kicked out.... Every public restroom with more than one toilet should have a stall occupied by a man pooping while playing/singing this.... And they should sing it in church between Black Sabbath songs.... If I were king, I'd mandate these things and then hand over the thrown to a parrot or an emu... something along those lines...
what kid?
Lost at the bottom of the world is agood squeul
I'd vote for ya if u run for king.
Tell them to learn 'Tabletop Joe'!
absolutely f in amazing now thats an artist
That cough at the end is the best! :D
probably my favorite waits song ever. i fucking love his lisp.
Tom Waits brought me here, ages before 'True Bluch' started doing the rounds.
Hollywood be thy name.... lol
Eugene Rudman -

Bjørn Åsmund Vaa exactly

reginald grays What?
WOW, I am so glad for the internet I would have never heard this Awesome song "Jesus Gonna be here". Tom Waits is Amazing Artist.
This is gonna be played on True Blood, right?
Love it.
Great sounds. Great vid. The bad ol' times with the new.
I just love the fact that it kinda seems like it was recorded in basement or smth!
Nice name... It was recorded in the old cement hatchery rooms of the cellar of the studio...
I've heard that one before. I'm not sure that's what he was getting at, that's far too round about.
it actually does if you know your facts, heath ledger used tom waits as inspiration for his role as the joker in the movie the dark knight
not that i agree with him
You're comment makes no sense. Not sure you need to hear that but just in case.
cof cof... Nice.
