Текст Joy Oladokun — Nazareth

Jesus was born on the outskirts of town
But you never could tell if you looked at him now
If every underdog becomes a god
When will my luck come around?

I have traveled every highway from Phoenix to Maine
One thousand sanctuary doors shut in my face
I’m not asking for much
Just a safe little space I can rest
Nazareth

I’m getting high in a church parking lot
Gotta work round the way about seven o’clock
It’s funny how this searching in the spotlights
Just leaves me wanting to be found

I have traveled every highway from Phoenix to Maine
One thousand sanctuary doors shut in my face
I’m not asking for much
Just a safe little space I can rest

I dipped my feet in Hope Alaska
I cut my teeth in Baton Rouge
I even swam out to the Jordan
They couldn’t find me any room
I’ve got good friends out up in heaven
But I’m too young to make that move
If there’s no Nazareth on Earth
Then what’s a child of god to do—o?

I have traveled every highway from Phoenix to Maine
One thousand sanctuary doors shut in my face
I’m not asking for much
Just a safe little space I can rest

Ooh, ooh-ooh
Nazareth
