Story behind the song
My Dad used to holler, 'Son, close that door! were you born in a barn!?' Got to thinkin' about that later in relation to Jesus... This song is about how Jesus was 'Born in a Barn' and He is the King of the Common Man (and Woman). We can take comfort in the fact that He loves us, regardless of position or wealth.
Lyrics
Verse 1: If I've heard it once I've heard it At least a thousand times: 'Son, were you born in a barn?' 'Shut the door, you'll let the bugs in!' 'Shut the door, you'll let the heat in!' 'Tell me son, were you born in a barn?' Chorus: But my King was born in a barn! And I'm so very glad that He was! For a common man like me Had a chance to be set free! Yes, my King was born in a barn! And my King left the door open wide For any bug that wants to come inside Yes, my Jesus paved the way to enter heaven one day! Yes my King left the door open wide! Verse 2: Well, I've got to laugh, 'cause I catch myself Saying the same old thing! 'What goes around comes around,' they say... ALL my kids let the bugs in ALL my kids let the heat in And to make them stop is really still OK. Chorus (twice):
