Ron House runs a 7-Eleven
In a rebel hat and boot-cut jeans
He hears songs from God
On his Walkman radio
He swears he don't know what they mean
He tells me, "Man, we're still standing around
Just you and me after many a long war"
Ron says we can bury the bodies to the right
Out back behind the store
He says, "Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
I'm going home with Jesus tonight"
Ron House is a mobile DJ
For dance parties and fashion shows
There is a message hidden in the music he plays
But what it is, he doesn't know.
He tells me, "Man, we could make a killing tonight
Just you and me out on the dance floor"
Ron says we can bury the bodies to the right
Out back behind the store
He says, "Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
I'm going home with Jesus tonight"
Ron says there's nothing like being saved,
If you can stand the pain of it all
It's better than a famous lover,
He claims she's going to keep it warm tonight
Ron says he knows what I'm thinking
I'm just a sunk son of a son-of-a-gun
But Ron says that we can all be cowboys again
Just like when we were young
He says, "Kids today are used up and anxious
They think they see a sympathetic look in my eye"
Ron says he never says he's sorry because
He doesn't like to lie
He says, "Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
"Hey, man, don't worry. I got a ride
I'm going home with Jesus tonight"
"Hey, kids, just step aside.
I'm riding shotgun with Jesus tonight.
I'm going home with Jesus tonight
I'm going home with Jesus tonight
I'm going home with Jesus tonight"
