[Verse 1]
C F C
In southern Ohio, just north of Cincinnati
G C
I beheld a vision, next to the expressway.
F C
Was a 60 foot Jesus, with his hands in the air
G
looks like he’s carved out of butter,
C
just like at the state fair.
[Chorus]
C F C
Big butter Jesus, Sweet cream Jesus
G C
Oh country fresh Jesus, unsalted Jesus
F C
Oh Promise Jesus, Imperial Jesus
G C
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus, Ole-o Lord
[Verse 2]
C F
Well you see him from his chest up
C
Like he's about to do a backflip
G
Or maybe scored a touchdown
C
Or maybe melting or about to drown
F
You know I been to the state fair
C
Seen a calf made out of golden corn
G
Stephen Hawking out of string cheese
C
And the virgin out of olives
[Chorus]
C F C
Big butter Jesus, Sweet cream Jesus
G C
Oh country fresh Jesus, unsalted Jesus
F C
Oh Promise Jesus, Imperial Jesus
G C
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus, Ole-o Lord
[Verse 3]
C F
Shipped in pieces on a flatbed
C
Staring backwards was his big head
G
Drivers stuck in traffic backups
C
Desperately avoiding eye contact
F
Well don't you make no graven images
C
I think it's one of the ten commandments
G
I hope the grading curve is kindly
C
You get into heaven with a ninety
[Chorus]
C F C
Big butter Jesus, Sweet cream Jesus
G C
Oh country fresh Jesus, unsalted Jesus
F C
Oh Promise Jesus, Imperial Jesus
G C
Can’t believe it’s not Jesus, Ole-o Lord
[Verse 4]
C F
Big Butter Jesus
C
got hit by lightning
G
and it burned to the frame-wire
C
in a gigantic grease fire
F
some blamed it on Satan
C
and boy that be frightening
G
but I think it's Jesus' father
C
who's in charge of the lightning
[Second Chorus]
C F C
Big Fireball Jesus, extremely flammable Jesus
G C
Charbroiled Jesus, Oomph-ah Jesus
F C
Extra crispy Jesus, Bananas Foster Jesus
G C
Holy smoke it's Jesus, charcoal me some more
G C
Oh holy smoke it’s Jesus, Ole-o Lord
