I saw you sittin' there
I was tryin' not to stare
I wasn't sure if it was you
I didn't know just what to do

[Chorus:]
Are you drinkin' with me Jesus
I can't see you very clear
Are you drinkin' with me Jesus
Would you buy a friend a beer

As I nestled on my barstool
I felt your warmness within
I looked down at my pants
That wasn't warmness
I wet myself again

[Chorus]

Does your head pound, Jesus
As hung over you do rise
How does paradise look, Jesus
Through holy bloodshot eyes

Should we take a cab home Jesus
Man, we can hoof it from here
I know you can walk on the water
But can you walk on this much beer

Are you drinkin' with me Jesus
I can't see you very clear

Now if we could just get some Pailhead on RP!!!  ;-) {#Devil_pimp}
Please NEVER play this garbage again! There is so much great music out there that's never been played, why disturb our senses with this craptastia?
Mojo & Skip. And Jello too. The first two were a breath of zany fresh air back in the 80's or so. Gotta love 'em. Paint My Face on a Nuclear Bomb, I Hate Banks, Living with a Three Foot Anti-Christ -- all classics in their own right. Yesiree!
I like the Country Dick version better. Still good and irreverent.

I believe Mojo Nixon's exact words were, "The man's got balls the size of church bells." :)

He still does the song, but now it's called, "Phil Collins Must Die." No argument from me there.
 
Poor Phil. He's actually done some good songs but got overhyped/played by FM radio. 

I remember hearing about "Don Henley Must Die" but have never heard it. Was this about the time that Mojo put out "I Ain't Gonna Piss in No Jar"? 
If you don't have Mojo Nixon, your store could use some fixin'.  Not sure if Jesus drinks, but I'm sure he's there no matter how many you put back and still loves you even when you say something off color and stupid.  Everyone else around you is another story.... Here's a country song w/ a similar theme --->


Gotta love Mojo....2 personal faves are Elvis Is Everywhere and Shane's Dentist 
More Mojo please!
thanks a billion for posting those lyrics ScottfromWyoming, how cool I got to hear some mojo and jello!!!
A piss poor imitation of Country Dick Montana and the Beat Farmers version. Now that one was awsome.

Very funny. Mojo Nixon used to do a song, with Skid Roper, called Don Henley Must Die. One time when he was playing it, Don Henley was there, and came on stage and sang backup vocals. Mojo later said that he would no longer play the song because he found Don to be a good guy. Check out the lyrics to Don Henley Must Die sometime, and you'll see how funny it was that Henley sang backup vocals.

This is the sound of my brain Then I said -This is the sound of my brain on Don Henley Then I said -One two three four He's a tortured artist Used to be in the eagles Now he whines like a wounded beagle Poet of despair Puffed up with hot air He's serious, pretentious and I just don't care Don henley must die Don't let him get back together With Glenn Frey, Don Henley must die Cut on the TV And what did I see This bloated hairy thing winnin' a grammy Huah Best rock vocalist Compared to what Bunch of pseudo-serious Kraft angst-a-matic Satanic plot Don Henley Must die Put a sharp stick in his eye, don henley must die Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya Oh Quit playin' that crap Youíre out of the band I'm only kidding, can't you tell? I love his sensitve music Idiot poetry swell You and your kind Are killin' rock and roll It's not because youíre o-l-d --Cause you ain't Got no soul Don't be afraid of fun Loosen up your ponytail Be wild, young Free and-a Get your head Outta your tail Don Henley Must die Donít let him get back together With Glenn Frey Don Henley Must die Put him in the electric chair Watch him fry, Don Henley must die Don Henley must die Ah ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya No Eagles reunion The same goes for you too Sting Ah Oh

Can't believe it. Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper is out of print. A used copy on sale for $88.00!!! Blah! But what what a set list:!!!!! 1. Jesus at McDonald's 2. Mushroom Maniac 3. Moanin' With Your Mama 4. Promised Land Tonight 5. Guns to My Head 6. I'm in Love With Your Girlfriend 7. Rockin' Religon 8. Big Payback 9. Comin' Down 10. Mama Possums 11. King of the Couch 12. Art Fag Shuffle 13. Black Yo' Eye
commander cody and the lost planet airmen anyone? could be cousins.
Not quite as inspiring as "I Saw Jesus at McDonald's at Midnight" with Skid Roper, but it will do....
Love it! ..... Don Henly must Die? I've gotta hear that one! KAC
oooo! does anyone have "elvis is everywhere" by these guys that they cd upload? happy happy happy
This reminds me of Wesley Willis.... JELLLLO BIAAAFRA! :D
Perhaps not as inspirational as Mojo Nixon's "Don Henley Must Die" (In Henley's defense, he did come on stage and sing it with Mojo at a show in Austin about 10 years ago), but it ain't bad.
You don't know who Mojo Nixon is your store could use some fix'n!!!
What a combo!!! Hoo-ahhh!!
More Mojo Nixon! I remember a great song about BBQ.
Jello and Mojo are totally rockin' on this one. love it.
