Sweet Baby Jesus Biography
Sweet Baby (originally known as Sweet Baby Jesus) was a pop punk band that originated from Berkeley, California, and was part of the 924 Gilman Street scene. They were signed to Ruby Records.
Formed in 1986 by singer Dallas Denery and singer/guitarist Matt Buenrostro with Crispy Jim (later of The Saddlebacks) on bass and Dr. Frank (the frontman of The Mr. T Experience) on drums. Frank and Crispy Jim did not appear on any Sweet Baby recordings, having been already replaced by Sergie Loobkoff (Samiam, Knapsack) and Richie Bucher (Jüke, Wynona Ryders), respectively. Aaron Elliott aka Aaron Cometbus also played drums for them on their 1989 US tour. They had two songs on the Maximum Rock and Roll compilation Turn it Around (1988), "She's from Salinas" and "Pathetic." In 1989, they released their only LP, It's A Girl on Ruby Records (a Slash/Warner subsidiary). Lookout Records re-released it in 1995.
In January 2005, their song, "Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby, I Love You" was featured on Bravo in an advertisement for the show Queer Eye for the Straight Girl.
In 1989 due to Sweet Baby, Green Day changed their name from Sweet Children to Green Day for there to be no confusion before releasing their first EP 1,000 Hours.
Dallas Denery is currently an assistant professor at Bowdoin College in the History Department and regularly broadcasts a radio show for WBOR 91.1 called "Dick and Jane's Cocktail Hour" with his wife and son "Spot." They generally play a "happy hour" of lounge music starting at 5:00 pm and then an hour of independent rock on various weekdays.
Born in the manger
Not knowing you would face
A destiny that would save the world
And give them needed grace
You taught so well the scholars and priest
In the temple, to the multitudes at the last feast
With outstretched hands you saved us all
Knowing the world around you would fall
What is it about you Lord
What is it people need
Is it the unseen faith you provide
The gentle warnings that you heed
You gave your life
So we could have eternal time
With you and all the angels
In heaven’s sweet sublime
Streets of gold and walls of jasper
Are a few of the things Lord that I am after
And my dreams of the here after
Were made possible by a baby in a manger
Sweet baby Jesus that’s who you are,
Lord, I'm here to follow you, here or afar. .
Along with the likes of Crimpshrine, the Mr. T Experience, Operation Ivy, Brett's TV, Stikky, and Soup, Sweet Baby Jesus has been considered as one of the original Berkley punk outfits during the mid-'80s. With the band consisting of Dallas (vocals), Matt (guitar/vocals), Richie (bass), and Sergie (drums) -- who would be eventually replaced by Aaron Cometbus -- the quartet would release their first album, It's a Girl, in 1989 on a major label before corporate politics got in the way of its proper distribution. After breaking up not too long after It's a Girl went out of print, individual members went on to join the likes of Pinhead Gunpowder, Samiam, the Wynona Riders, and the Bomb Bassets. Seven years later, Lookout Records restored Sweet Baby Jesus' legend by not only reissuing the their singles, demos, and scattered material on the 1996 compilation CD Hello Again -- which is also a split with Brett's TV -- but as well as reprinting It's A Girl that same year.

[Verse 1]
I told my mama I was on the come up
She said "you going to school I'll give you a summer"
Then she met NO I'd and gave me his number
10 years later she driving a Hummer
Niggas hustle every day for a beat from Ye
What I do? Turn around gave them beats to Jay
And I'm rapping on the beat they was supposed to buy
I guess I'm getting high off my own supply
Downtown mixing fabrics trying to find the magic
Started a little blog just to get some traffic
Old folks'll tell you not to play in traffic
A million hits and the web crashes – damn!
South Park had them all laughing
Now all my niggas designing and we all swaggin'
Ignore the critics just to say we did it
This ain't no fashion show, motherf-cker, we live it
