I need Jesus or I need whiskey Whatever works best to get me through Gettin' over you A little Friday night hallelujah A congregation of backsliders just like me Yeah, what I need Is a neon church with a jukebox choir Full of honky tonk angels With their wings on fire Straight pourin' out that Johnnie Walker healin' I got a feelin' I need a neon church Baptize me in that barroom smoke Bartender, preach to me 'til my heart ain't broke no more Ain't that what this place is for? I tried bended knee, hands-up prayin' But damn did that hurt don't just keep hangin' around What I need right now Is a neon church with a jukebox choir Full of honky tonk angels With their wings on fire Straight pourin' out that Johnnie Walker healin' I got a feelin' I need a neon church Just a-sippin' down that unholy water Save that hurt-like-hell for tomorrow I'll stay here all night In a neon church with the party crowd Where the good times roll And the music's loud Instead of home starin' holes in the ceiling I got a feeling I need a neon church with a jukebox choir Full of honky tonk angels With their wings on fire Straight pourin' out that Johnnie Walker healin' I got a feelin' I need a neon church I need a neon church Oh oh Oh oh Oh oh
