Written by David Berman. Originally Performed by Silver Jews.

lyrics

In the times I dream of Jesus
it's like he's coming through the Walls
When I'm working at my desk at night
I hear his footsteps in the hall
You can Believe me or not believe me
I'm just a bird upon the sill
and these words just coarse right through
like water through a Mill

He was a Rebel Jew
and HE died for me and My sin
He Was a Rebel Jew
Just Let Him In

All the times I dream of Texas
yeah it's the biggest part of me
the Planes look like the Sea at night
O she wants to be so Free
She is a rebel state
and its not too late for her to break
from a sick sick sick Union
Just Separate

All the times I dream of Michelle
and the Mountains in her Mind
Some women lie down with killers
O My baby yeah She's that Kind
She is a real good girl
And She stops the World
so I can see
that She is a real good girl
yeah She's a real good girl for me

He Was a Rebel Jew
and he died for you and your Sins
He was a Rebel Jew
Just Let Him In Yeah let him In.
