Jesus the Mexican Boy

[Jamesknordsiek]

It's songs like this that you shouldn't try to pin down to having just one meaning. This is about a lot of things.. Humbleness, forgiveness, honesty, love, truth... Truly beautiful.

Also, I'd love to sing this at my daughter's wedding.

[laoxinat]

One of the loveliest most poignant songs ever. Hard to sing it's such a tearjerker!

People that call this boring can't appreciate language. This is poetry, at its greatest form- music. We get so caught up in the fast pace of life that some can't sit back and enjoy something beautiful, slow, and true. There is more beauty in these words than any fast paced song ive heard..just because it is slow doesnt make it boring I find it to be actually VERY thought provoking which is why someone even said here that they write to this song..very inspirational.

Peace, love, Sam beam.

Who would have thought such a low fi and simple song could be so pleasing. Sounds like he uses an old tape recorder for recording but I think that's part of the magic. I feel like I'm on a dirt road in a small town in mexico...

Maybe "Jesus" is the mexican name, pronounced Hey-zus.

Jesus the Mexican boy born in a truck on the fourth of July gave me a card with a lady naked on the back Barefoot at night on the road Fireworks blooming above in the sky I never knew I was given the best one from the deck He never wanted nothing I remember Maybe a broken bottle if I had two Hanging behind his holy even temper Hiding the more unholy things I do Jesus the Mexican boy Gave me a ride on the back of his bike Out to the fair though I welched on a $5 bet Drunk on Calliope songs

One of my favorite songs. This is my alarm in the morning. It's the best thing in the world to wake up to

[nayners]

@Musiciankdsc I think I'm going to do this now. I can't imagine waking up to this with anything less than a smile on my face :)

[macronaria]

@Musiciankdsc I feel as if it would just make me want to sleep more
