I headed out of Tennessee
15 hits of LSD
Jesus is not ready for me now
When I hear the church bells ring
God only knows, I love to sing
But Jesus is not ready for me now
I skipped my bail and drove all night
Without another soul in sight
Jesus is not ready for me now
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa
I flopped down in a cheap motel
On a lonely street, you know it well
Jesus is not ready for me now
Always known to have my fun
Especially when it came to women, money, and guns
Jesus is not ready for me now
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa, ooh!
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa
Jesus was my best friend
Too bad he won't be back again
Jesus is not ready for me now
Some say he was a real good guy
Some say he was born to die
Jesus is not ready for me now
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa, yeah yeah
I'm going back to Oklahoma
Back to Oklahoma
To see my Ma and Pa
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Jesus is not ready for me now
