Jesus is the One – Bob Dylan
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Bob Dylan
Live, Germany (Loreley), July 17, 1981
Now on: “The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 (1979-1981): Trouble No More”
There is no studio recording of this song. Dylan performed it
ten times between July and November 1981 and each time, he sang
(improvised?) new lyrics. So there are many alternate sets of
lyrics for this song. None of them appears on his official site
(https://www.bobdylan.com/songs/jesus-one/).

Alternate lyrics (from: https://bob-dylan.org.uk/archives/3699)
Don’t know the exact date this was performed, but it gives a general idea
of what the song is about.
Jesus is the one!
Jesus is the one!
It ain’t Mr. Truman
It ain’t Mr. Blue
It ain’t Mr. President
Mister Me or Mister You.
Jesus is the one!
Jesus is the one!
Well, you’re looking over yonder
But what do you see
That does not mean that
They’re comin’ for you, they’re comin’ for me.
Jesus is the one!
Jesus is the one!
Well, it ain’t Mr. Reagan
That can raise a bed
It ain’t Mr. Rockefeller
That can raise the dead.
Jesus is the one!
Jesus is the one!
It ain’t Mr. Vallee
It ain’t a fortune star
It ain’t Mr. Roosevelt
That can heal your broken heart.
Jesus is the one
Jesus Is The One acordes
de Bob Dylan
