The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor Video (MV)






Gaither Vocal Band - The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor Lyrics
Official




Among the local taverns they'll be
A slack in business
'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the
Groceries and the rent
Among the local women they'll be
A slack in cheatin'
'Cause Jesse won't be be steppin' out again
They baptized Jesse Taylor in
Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan
Lost a good right arm
They all cried "Hallelujah" as
Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
The scars on Jesse's knuckles were
More than just respected
The county courthouse records tell all
There is to tell
The pockets of the gamblers will
Soon miss Jesse's money
And the black eye of the
Law will soon be well
They baptized Jesse Taylor in
Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan
Lost a good right arm
They all cried "Hallelujah" as
Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
From now on Nancy Taylor can
Proudly speak to neighbors
Tell how much Jesse took up with little Jim
Now Jimmy's got a daddy and
Jesse's got a family
And Franklin County's got a lot more man
They baptized Jesse Taylor in
Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan
Lost a good right arm
They all cried "Hallelujah" as
Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
