[4/4, slow & sleazy]
POLE DANCIN’ FOR JESUS
--J. Wrabek (with Gene Burnett)
[THE RAP: Saw this on a TV news clip (I knew there was a good reason to watch the news)—there’s a Christian women’s group in Texas that has started a “pole dancing for Jesus” program. They do it to Gospel music… I told Gene there was a song in it, and he said, “So write one,” and I did—using some of his lines. Thanks, Gene.]
1.
There’s a storefront church in Galveston
Where the lights go up when the sun goes down
In a neighborhood where they don’t serve wines or cheeses
On a stage that’s trimmed with Christmas lights
They’re servin’ up salvation ev’ry night—
Come on down—we’re goin’ pole dancin’ for Jesus.
2.
Tried it at the shopping mall
But it didn’t work out well at all
Folks stared, and the whole damn’ place was freezin’;
Here, it’s warm, lights are dim
And the sinners just keep pourin’ in—
Coime on down, and let’s go pole dancin’ for Jesus.
CHORUS:
Leave your inhibitions at the door
You won’t need them any more
And you can tithe with your MasterCards and VISAs;
Strip yourself free from sin
Sweatin’ to those Gospel hymns—
Come on down and let’s go pole dancin’ for Jesus.
[REALLY SLEAZY LEAD BREAK, WITH BURLESQUE OVERTONES]
3.
When the heavens open wide
To bring the righteous ones inside
We’ll be there with our smiles and pleased t’meetchas;
There’ll be halos for us all
When we get that clarion call
And we’ll all be pole dancin’ with Jesus.
CHORUS:
Leave your inhibitions at the door
You won’t need them any more
And you can tithe with your MasterCards and VISAs;
Strip yourself free from sin
Sweatin’ to those Gospel hymns—
Come on down and let’s go pole dancin’ for Jesus.
REPEAT LAST LINE OF CHORUS TO END
