Two nights standing Tulsa pulling out and headed west.
Brady grabbed the Gibbons from the hotel and the desk and we said,
What's the matter [A] brother?
Are you worried about your soul?
He [E] said, Better safe than sorry boys, that's just how I roll.
We hit the road a feeling cool as cross, [Bm] but still the Nash overflowing
[E] with spirit and the Bible on the dash.
We pulled the whole thing over, pulled the [Em] flash in red and blues.
[E] Police came to the window, said, Have you heard the news?
Now don't get smart with me boy, [A] why you doing 95?
[E] My foot is heavy with redemption, I'm just blessed to be [A] alive.
He said, I ought to [B] pull you out of there, beat you black and blue.
I placed my hand upon the good book, said, What would [G] Jesus do?
[A] It's better than insurance, registration or life.
It's better than these [Em] fake IDs I keep on buying.
It's [A] even better than an envelope stuffed with cash.
[B] They always said it saved me that old Bible on the dash.
[Em]
Around this part of the hair alone I'll make [E] probable cause.
If you'll move into my county, you'll obey my earthly laws.
Yes, [A] we did our best to quote some holy writ, chapter and [E] verse.
What kind of music you off making?
[Em] We said, Christian music, sir.
He [B] contemplated, thought about it, twirled his cop mustache.
All right, you boys [E] be careful now, just don't [B] drive quite so fast.
[A] It's better than insurance, registration or life.
[E] It's better than these fake IDs I keep on buying.
It's [A] even better than an envelope stuffed with cash.
[B] They always said it saved me that old Bible on the dash.

Crossing at the border a few months later, we heard, Freeze!
Pull in over there, son, we're gonna do some search and seize.
Maybe [A] if we'd been more famous, he'd have said, Just move [E] along.
If he'd have seen us on the TV.
Or if we'd had hit single [B] songs.
He's just about to ask us where's the money, guns and cash.
Well, I [Em] was hoping it'd save me that old Bible on the dash.
But his hand was [E] on his pistol and his dog was on his leash.
And that shepherd, [Em] he was keeping a pretty close eye on his sheep.
[A] We got a list we ought to look at, see if we [C] can't find your name.
We [E] got parabolic laser beams, here's everything you say.
[A] We got [B] ultraviolet x-rays, they can see right through your bus.
I guess we'll see if the good Lord's [A] truly watching over us.
It's better than a green card, it's better than life.
[E] It's better than these work visas I keep on buying.
It's even better [C#] than an [A] envelope stuffed with cash.
[B] Lord, I'm at the border with the Bible on the dash.
