Lyrics
He said if I spare a dime and put it on his plate, that I'd succeed for eternity and walk through Heaven's gate. And if I spare a dollar against my common sense, that God might let me be a millionaire. I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way to the other side of town. 'Cause I can't take you serious. I've got to get away. I've got better ways to waste my time. Now I'm not causin' problems, I'll stay the heck out of a fight. But I always thought that Jesus knew his wrong from right. He knew when to make a scene, he knew when to talk, and he knew when to leave a man alone! I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way to the other side of town. 'Cause I can't take you serious. I've got to get away. I've got better ways to waste my time. Now if you take offense to me, and fault you're tryin' to find, pick up that ol' Bible and read it line for line. Jesus would have loved me, and Jesus would have cared, and I think Jesus would've called you a dirty whore! I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way (I'm on my way) I'm on my way to the other side of town. 'Cause I can't take you serious. I've got to get away. I've got better ways to waste my time.
