He Said That He Was Jesus Lyrics - Aaron Tippin

I remember I was sitting in this little cafe 

Some where out in the middle of L.A. 

It was almost Christmas and I was all alone 

Suddenly He appeared, hungry, cold and tired 

Headed straight for me, He sat down uninvited 

What was on my mind when I didn't say 

'Cause what He said to me, I think of every Christmas day 

He said that He was Jesus born in Bethlehem 

And that He died for us but somehow we'd forgotten Him 

Maybe He was lying just above my father's tree 

But He said that He was Jesus and I just had to believe 

I sat there in stunned silence and when His eyes met mine 

I just pushed my plate to Him and He said, "You're mighty kind" 

And I admit I had my doubts but I just couldn't take the chance 

I know the good book says, "You gotta help your fellow man" 

And He said that He was Jesus born in Bethlehem 

And that He died for us but somehow we'd forgotten Him 

Maybe He was lying just above my father's tree 

But He said that He was Jesus and I just had to believe 

I may never know if it was Jesus in that chair 

All I really know is that I'm sure that He was there 

He said that He was Jesus born in Bethlehem 

And that He died for us but somehow we'd forgotten Him 

Maybe He was lying just above my father's tree 

But He said that He was Jesus and I just had to believe 

Yep, I was sitting in this little cafe 

Some where out in the middle of L.A. 

It was almost Christmas, I was all alone
