Lyrics

Macgimsey

I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name

But I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
So I told him it would be alright and the world would hate me
That I would go hungry if he changed my name
