Jesus & Hairspray

(album: Letting Go… Slow - 2016)

Girl, it's quick in this town
There's a couple things you need
To get you through the good days
All the bad days, and in between
For a broken heart, a broken nail
A broken bank account
There's a perfect combination
That always works it out

Takes a little bit of Jesus
It takes a whole lotta hairspray
To keep the pieces of this crazy life
Perfectly in place
You might think you're a tough girl
But tough ain't enough, girl
You need two things holding down the fort
When the storm blows your way
Jesus and hairspray

Keep it all together
When everything goes wrong
From double shifts and whiny kids
To the mother-in-laws
Oh, the Bible says that there's temptation
There's a way out, you can bet
So we say a little prayer
And we pull out the Aquanet

Takes a little bit of Jesus
Takes a whole lotta hairspray
To keep the pieces of this crazy life
Perfectly in place
You might think you're a tough girl
But tough ain't enough, girl
You need two things holding down the fort
When the storm blows your way
Jesus and hairspray

The higher the hair
Closer to heaven
I know the trials are gonna come
Just let 'em

Takes a little bit of Jesus
It takes a whole lotta hairspray
To keep the pieces of this crazy life
Perfectly in place
You might think you're a tough girl
But tough ain't enough, girl
You need two things holding down the fort
When the storm blows your way
Jesus and hairspray
Jesus and hairspray
