All backup players and me
Billy's on the Fender Strat
Jill's on tambourine

You should hear him whale
The band is really jumpin
When Jesus Blazes the trail.

Says he can do it on his own
He'll take his axe and jam the world
Says he's better off alone

Every note rings poor
His pride has gotten in the way
Its a Struggle for more

In his rock and roll band

This band's in great demand.
The players play, no one's a star
Sept' Jesus playin his 12 string guitar

Well old Billy's back, he's on his knees
Realized he's been a fool
Can not take the lead

Come watch Jesus play the 12 string
In his rock and roll band
We stay back and watch his lead
This band's in great demand.
The players play, no one's a star
Sept' Jesus playin his 12 string guitar
