	Not all televangelists are bad, but the ones that drive their Rolls Royces straight to the bank after the sermon do make one wonder. This song is somewhat in the style of early Tex-Mex influenced Ry Cooder.

	Lyrics Prophet's profits They're mining our faults Rolling down the freeway On the way to their vaults Prophet's profits It's money they crave Now I know what they mean When they say Jesus saves But Jesus never drove no Cadillac anyway Prophet's profits They make it on TV Sending prayers through the air Self-righteously Prophet's profits Salvation for sale Preacher be so happy if you Drop that check in the mail But Jesus never drove no Cadillac with fancy fin tails Well what were you thinking Now preacher What do you think Happens when you die Did you think You could drive that limo To the mansion in the sky Nice try There was a prophet Turned water to wine Raised Lazarus from the dead To give his people a sign There was a prophet A shepherd of love Layed his life down so that We could rise above But Jesus never drove no Cadillac anyway 1989 Robert J. Conaway/Gregory Conniff
