Letter to Jesus lyrics

I'm gonna write another letter to Jesus

And ask him if I can be excused

Last time I wrote a letter to Jesus

You know that he refused

Well, waiting in line is not my style

I've been tapping fingers for quite a while

Perhaps they've spelled my name wrong

In the great big file

I'm gonna write another letter to Jesus

And I'll ask him if I have to hang around

If I'm good and I add a lot of pleases

Maybe he'll let me ride right out of town

I wanna go back where I can begin

To start my life all over again

Perhaps with a second chance

There'll be a way to win

I wanna go back - please take me back

Where the wild birds sing me to sleep at night

My bed's as soft as the silk moonlight

The days roll on and roll on in delicious delight

I'm gonna write another letter to Jesus

And I'll mail it just as soon as I am through

I hope the postman sees that he receives it

'Cause all I wanna do is start anew

'Cause all I wanna do is start over
