lyrics

The second coming was in Bakersfield in 1999

He rolled into town in the middle of the night

He called himself Jesus but I could see right through his disguise

He had the same brown skin and those same soulful ebony eyes

I didn't get to know him all that well

One night we shared a fire, down by the railroad tracks off off highway 99

As the night wore on we got to talkin'
About these coming times

Fell into silence and he just sat there smiling

Pretty soon he got to talking

He said surround yourself with good hearted people

One's that will watch your back and help you through

Give a little aid and comfort to a stranger

In these times ahead I think you better give yourself a little too

And keep your eye on the horizon
There's magic in the moon

Yah you see the circle is still unbroken
Yah I said the circle is still unbroken
