The Gospel According To Luke
Recorded by Skip Ewing
Written by Skip Ewing and Don Sampson

C G7 C
He was an old hand at living and making his way
Am G7 F G7
He smelled like old whiskey and he needed a shave
Am G7 F
His home was an alley off 8th Avenue
C G7 F
If you had a minute or an hour or two
C G7 C
He'd tell you the Gospel according to Luke

G7 C
Luke carried his Bible in a crown royal bag
Am G7 F G7
He wiped off his brow with an old dirty rag
Am G7 F
He'd tell you straight out just the way he believed
C G7 F
Faith in the good Lord was all that ya need
C G7 C
I remember the morning he first preached to me

Am G7 F C
He said give to your brother if he is in need
Am G7 F G7
Offer up thanks for the gifts you receive
Am G7 F
There's treasure in heaven for the generous few
C G7 C
That was the gospel according to Luke

G7 C
So I bought him breakfast at the Daylight Cafe
Am G7 F G7
Biscuits and gravy hot coffee and eggs
Am G7 F
He was hungry and ragged hadn't eaten in days
C G7 F
But I was the one there who felt out of place
C G7 C
When he folded his hands bowed his head and said grace

G7 C
A week ago Wednesday I saw him again
Am G7 F G7
Downtown at the mission surrounded by friends
Am G7 F
Handing out all the change he'd collected that week
C G7 F
Saying you boys might need this a lot more than me
C G7 C
I try hard to practice the words that I preach

Repeat #3

G7 C
He was an old hand at living and making his way
Am G7 F G7
He smelled like old whiskey and he needed a shave
Am G7 F
His home was an alley off 8th Avenue
C G7 F
If you had a minute or an hour or two
C G7 C
He'd tell you the Gospel according to Luke
