Songtekst
If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to his face
If you were faced with him and all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question
[chorus]:
And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus tryin' to make his way home
If God had a face, what would it look like
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints and all the prophets
[chorus]
Just tryin' to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody callin' on the phone
'Xcept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
[break]
[chorus]
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryin' to make his way home
Nobody callin' on the phone
'Xcept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
