We got us a nativity scene
And we set it out on the lawn
Somebody took it in the middle of the night
And in the morning it was gone

They took the camel and the three wise men
Mary and the manger too
They got my flood lights, extension cords
Worst of all they got you

Help me baby Jesus (help me baby Jesus)
Help me bring you home (help me bring you home)
I been searching for my Jesus, all night long

Help me baby Jesus (help me baby Jesus)
Guide me with your light (guide me with your light)
I been searching for you, Jesus, all the night

I rode around the neighborhood
I searched in every yard
Someone took my Jesus
Man, I took it hard

Some nativity scenes are plywood
But you were weather proof styrene
And when I hit those flood lights
You were the perfect Christmas scene

Help me baby Jesus (help me baby Jesus)
Help me bring you home (help me bring you home)
I been searching for my Jesus, all night long

Help me baby Jesus (help me baby Jesus)
Guide me with your light (guide me with your light)
I been searching for you, Jesus, through the night

I searched all night for Jesus
I made it home at dawn
When I rolled up the driveway
I saw you back out on the lawn

There was a note there from my neighbor
Said we don't always see eye to eye
But I saw your Jesus needed love
And I thought I'd give him a try

Here's your baby Jesus (here's your baby Jesus)
Cleaned Him, good as new (cleaned Him, good as new)
He's my scrubbed up, washed up Christmas gift to you

Here's your baby Jesus (here's your baby Jesus)
Showin' us the way (showin' us the way)
He's the reason that we have this holiday
