Jesus Got a Tight Grip
by Blake Shelton

Album: Jesus Got a Tight Grip - Single

Verse 1
Well I ain't never been an angel
I ain't never been called a saint
Yeah, I've decorated every bar in town
With a big red coat of paint
But good thing I had a good raisin'
For all the Hell I've raised since then
When that roll is called up yonder
I know they're gonna let me in

Chorus
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul

Verse 2
Now I've been a little more cold beer
Than holy water, it's true
More Saturday night on an old bar stool
Than a Sunday morning pew
But even old Hank Williams
Finally saw the light
And, oh hallelujah, I have too
And it ain't just the neon kind

Chorus
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but he can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul, yeah

Bridge
Woah, I got a long, long way to go
Woah, but I'm gonna get there I know

Chorus
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
The Devil reaches out but He can't grab hold
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
And He ain't letting go, He ain't letting go
Might have a little rust on my halo
But when I'm gone I know where I'll go
'Cause Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Jesus got a tight grip on my soul
Yeah, He does, and He ain't letting go
