D
Well, I don't care if it rains or freezes
G
Long as I have my plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
Through all trials and tribualtions
G
We will travel every nation
D A D
With my plastic Jesus I'll go far
CHORUS
D G
Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
Through all trials and tribulations
G
We will travel every nation
D A D
With my plastic Jesus I'll go far
G
Riding down a thorooughfare
D
With his nose up in the air
D A
A wreck may be ahead, but He don't mind
D
Trouble coming He don't see
G
He just keeps His eye on me
D A D
ANd any other thing that lies behind
D G
Plastic Jesus, Plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dasboard of my car
D
Though the sunshine on his back
G
Makes Him peel, chip and crack
D A D
A little patching keeps Him up to par
D
When pedestrians try to cross
G
I let them know who's boss
D A
I never blow the horn or give them warning
D
I ride all over town
G
Trying to run them down
D A D
And it's seldom that they live to see the morning
D G
Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
His halo fits just right
G
And I use it for sight
D A D
And they'll scatter or they'll splatter near and far
D
If I weave around at night
G
And the police think I'm tight
D A
They'll never find my bottle, though they ask
D
Plastic Jesus shelters me
G
For His head comes off, you see
D A D
He's hollow, and I use Him for a flask
D G
Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
Ride with me and have a dram
G
Of the blood of the Lamb
D A D
Plastic Jesus is a holy bar
D G
Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
But I think he'll have to go
G
His magnet ruins my radio
D A D
And if we wreck he'll leave a scar
D G
Plastic Jesus, plastic Jesus
D A
Riding on the dashboard of my car
D
Once His robe was snowy white
G
Now it isn't quite so bright
D A D
Stained by the smoke of my cigar
