Jesus & Jeopardy

(albüm: Somebody Like Me - 2019)

Yeah, he had a way with words and a way of making sense
From broke down trucks to broken hearts
Wasn't nothing he couldn't fix
Everybody called him Red, but to me, he was just Granddad
Had an answer for every question I ever had

Like, "What is faith?" and "Who's James Dean?"
"Who's King James?" and "What does Watergate even mean?"
He watched the Berlin wall fall
Man, I thought he knew it all
And he'd tell me that he learned everything
From Jesus and Jeopardy!

He was covered in grease every day from 6 to 3
But come 4 o'clock on the dot, he'd tune in to channel 15
He hardly went to church, but he memorized every proverb
Every answer was a question or a verse

Like, "What is faith?" and "Who's James Dean?"
"Who's JFK and Martin Luther King?"
Yeah, Matthew, Mark, and Paul believed because they saw
But he told me that he learned everything
From Jesus and Jeopardy!
"Where do we go when we're gone?"
"What's the meaning of it all?"
Yeah, he'd tell me that he learned everything
From Jesus and Jeopardy!
