Lyrics Mavis Staples – Jesus Is On The Main Line

And Jesus is on the mainline
Tell Him what you want

Jesus is on the mainline
Tell Him, tell Him what you want

Jesus is on the mainline
Tell Him, tell Him what you want

Call Him up and tell Him what you want

Now He already died for your freedom
Tell Him what you want
He already died for your freedom
Tell Him what you want
Well He already died for your freedom
Tell Him what you want

You just call Him up and tell Him what you want
Yeah, if you want your justice
You oughta (tell Him what you want )
Yeah (if you want your justice)
Tell Him what you want
If you want your justice
Tell Him what you want

Go on and call Him up, call Him up, and tell Him what you want
Oh yeah Oh yeah
For equality tell Him what you want
If you want equality go on and tell Him what you want
Don’t you want it

You just call Him up and tell Him what you want

Lord, I want to be free yeah
Tell Him what you want

Jesus is on the main line
Tell Him what you want

My God He’s on the main line
Tell Him what you want
You just call Him in the morning

Tell Him what you want
Tell Him what you want
He’s a doctor
Tell Him what you want
He’s a lawyer in a court room
Tell Him what you want
He’s shelter in the time of doom
Tell Him what you want
He’s bread when you’re hungry
Tell Him what you want
All you got to do when you’re lonely
He’s a company keeper

All you got to do
Tell Him what you want
Tell Him what you want

He will answer
He will answer
He will answer your prayer

Call him up
repeat
