- Hey Jesus Lyrics / with translationsHey Jesus can you hear me?
Lay down your holy law
Here come a man steeped in sin
Makin' more money than is good for him
He don't know which way to turn
Makin' more money than he can burn
He can burn.
Hey Jesus can you hear me?
Lay down your holy law
Here comes a sinner sayin' "Praise the Lord"
Here comes a monkey singin' "Get on board"
Here comes a sinner sayin' 'Hail to me'
Makin' more money than you'll ever see
Hey Jesus can you hear me?
Lay down your holy law
Lay down your holy law
Here come a man steeped in sin
Makin' more money than is good for him
He don't know which way to turn
Makin' more money than he can burn
He can burn.
Hey Jesus can you hear me?
Lay down your holy law
Here comes a monkey singin' "Get on board"
Here comes a sinner sayin' 'Hail to me'
Makin' more money than you'll ever see
Hey Jesus can you hear me?
Lay down your holy law
