Boxcar Willie - Jesus i need to talk to you

^DLast night my little ^D7boy, knelt ^Gdown beside his ^Dbed He put his hands together, ^Ethen he bowed his ^A7head He said ^DJesus up in ^D7Heaven, I ^Gneed to talk to ^DYou * ^DMy Mama Always said, You'd ^A7know what to ^Ddo

^DI just don't under- ^D7-stand, why ^GMom was called a- ^Dway But Daddy said that we, will ^Eunderstand some- ^A7-day, But ^Dsince my Mama's ^D7gone, oh ^Gthings are not the ^Dsame, Sometimes at night, I hear ^A7Daddy call her ^Dname

^DPlease tell my ^D7Mama, ^Gthat I'm being ^Dgood I'm doing all the things, ^Ethat she said I ^A7should I'm ^Dtrying so very ^D7hard, to ^Gbe her little ^Dman ^DAnd each night before supper, I ^A7wash my face and ^Dhands

^DPlease tell my ^D7Mama, ^Gthat I miss her ^Dso And oh how I love her, but ^Ethis You already ^A7know And ^Dthere's just one ^D7thing more, to ^Gsay before I'm ^Dthrough, Jesus I feel better, ^A7when I talk to ^DYou

^DWell I just stood there in the ^D7hallway, with ^Gtears running down my ^Dcheeks. My little boy crawled into bed, and ^Esoon was fast a- ^A7-sleep. But I ^Dknew he'd found an inner ^D7strength, and it ^Gwould always see him ^Dthrough

And I said Jesus up in Heaven, I ^A7need to talk to ^Dyou
