See the Sunday morning wino slowly shufflin' down the street
The only God he knows clutched in his hand
And heaven's just a drink from his bottle and Jesus Christ to him is just another man
Yes Jesus is the only one that loves us he'll forgive us when we sin
Jesus is the only one that loves us even when we think we haven't got a friend
In cheap hotel room somewhere in Chicago a cheatin' husband takes his neighbor's wife
Lord that's not the way he did it in Korea
Still it's just another way of takin' someone's life
Around the corner in a cement city alley hidin' from the cold Chicago rain
While the Salvation Army band was playin'
A junky rolls his sleeves up and lets his Saviour in
Yes Jesus is the only one...
Yes Jesus is the only one...
