DRAG THEM SUCKERS IN
–Don Harris & Joe Wrabek
1.
Jesus stood on a grassy knoll, talkin' to his men;
Just before he left the earth he turned to them and grinned;
He said, "Go out to all the world and here's how you begin--
Go out on the highways, boys, and drag them suckers in."
[CHORUS]
Drag them suckers in, make ‘em feel at home;
The road don't feel so rocky if you don't feel alone;
The Lord cares where you're headed, and He don't care where you been;
So go out on the highways, boys, and drag them suckers in.
2.
It's nice to have a pretty church, with spires reaching high,
But the neighbor that y'oughta love may not be inside;
Some folks don't go to your church, but they're God's children, too
And the only Jesus they may see is the one they see in you.
[CHORUS]
Drag them suckers in, make ‘em feel at home;
The road don't feel so rocky if you don't feel alone;
The Lord cares where you're headed, and He don't care where you been;
So go out on the highways, boys, and drag them suckers in.
3.
Some folks need a good hot meal, and some just need a hand,
And some folks need someone who'll come around and be a friend;
We're all in this together, and y'don't know how it ends
Just reach out and help somebody any way you can.
[CHORUS]
Drag them suckers in, make ‘em feel at home;
The road don't feel so rocky if you don't feel alone;
The Lord cares where you're headed, and He don't care where you been;
So go out on the highways, boys, and drag them suckers in.
[BRIDGE]
"Love your neighbor, feed the poor, take care of orphans, too"--
These were just a couple things that Jesus said to do;
Can’t y’feel God's kingdom coming into view;
C This is how the Word of God can start to work in you.
[CHORUS]
Drag them suckers in, make ‘em feel at home;
The road don't feel so rocky if you don't feel alone;
The Lord cares where you're headed, and He don't care where you been;
So go out on the highways, boys, and drag them suckers in.
[REPEAT LAST LINE TO END]
