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