I think what it means by "he talks like a gentleman" is that this woman is sucked in by his smooth words, and convincing attitude, to make himself seem innocent, trustworthy, and gentlemanly and most importantly, to make her forget, or look over the fact that he isn't a very good person at all. With this interpretation, to say "he doesn't look a thing like Jesus" could mean "There is no heart or sole to be found in him" but he "talks like a gentleman." They can tell that this person isn’t too bright, or is very smart. In the same way someone could say someone looks really dense, or looks very intelligent, or anything like that, they can't actually physically see character traits, but in saying they can "see" these traits, they are saying they can sense them. I figure, Jesus is not known for looks, he is known for spirit, and heart, and sole. "He doesn't look a thing like Jesus, but he talks like a gentleman, like you remember when you were young."

It seems, the biggest and most argued lyrics in this song are: Maybe i'm just plain wrong here, but my interpretation of this song is, it seems, quite different than most on here. I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus (Talks like a gentlemen, like you imagined) They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet On the back of a hurricane that started turning
