Jeff Bates He Wasn't Like Us Lyrics

We didn't know for sure
but everybody said
That old boy
ain't right in the head
He's a little slow
We'd hide in the bushes not maken a sound
When he'd walk by we'd push him down
on that dirt road
I was just as guilty as my friends
We had a lot of laughs at his expense

CHORUS:
He wasn't like us
He wasn't cool
He'd just smile
even while we were being cruel
He stook out
He didn't fit in
But we kept throwin' the stones
no we didn't let up on him
He never said a mean word
No he never even made a fus
he wasn't like us

Later on he made a name in our town
For hangin' out and runnin' around
with the rough crowd
They were bozers and losers and low class broads
But he saw good in them nobody else saw
and he brought it out
Then the rumors started flyin'
that he was some kinda holy man
But we set em' straight
and told 'em to his face he was a crazy man

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Well, I remember the day
he got in trouble with the law
They cussed him
and kicked him
and mocked him and whipped him
Then they nailed him to the cross
He wasn't like us,
He didn't fit in
And I fell down on my knees
and wept for him
He never said a mean word
No he never even made a fuss
He never did nothing wrong
All he ever did was love

He wasn't like us
He wasn't like us
