Jesus Christ was a man who traveled through the land |
| [00:09.50] |
Hard working man and brave |
| [00:13.73] |
He said to the rich, "Give your goods to the poor." |
| [00:17.52] |
So they laid Jesus Christ in his grave |
| [00:23.68] |
Yes Jesus was a man, a carpenter by hand |
| [00:28.19] |
His followers true and brave |
| [00:32.59] |
One dirty coward called Judas Iscariot |
| [00:36.47] |
Has laid poor Jesus Christ in his grave |
| [00:42.06] |
He went to the preacher, he went to the sheriff |
| [00:46.87] |
Told them all the same |
| [00:51.00] |
Sell all of your jewelry and give it to the poor |
| [00:54.62] |
So they laid Jesus Christ in his grave |
| [01:03.75] |
When Jesus came to town, the working folks around |
| [01:08.50] |
Believed what he did say |
| [01:12.73] |
The bankers and the preachers they nailed him on a cross |
| [01:16.00] |
And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave |
| [01:21.02] |
Poor working people, they follered him around |
| [01:25.45] |
Sung and shouted gay |
| [01:29.34] |
But the cops and the soldiers, they nailed him in the air |
| [01:33.33] |
And they nailed Jesus Christ in his grave. |
| [01:41.69] |
Well the people held their breath when they heard about his death |
| [01:45.86] |
And everybody wondered why |
| [01:49.94] |
It was the landlord and the soldiers that he hired |
| [01:53.72] |
That nailed Jesus Christ in the sky |
| [01:59.17] |
This song was made in New York City |
| [02:03.59] |
Of rich men, preachers and slaves |
| [02:07.48] |
Yes, if Jesus was to preach like he preached in Galillee |
| [02:11.37] |
They would lay Jesus Christ in his grave |
| [02:18.50] |
Yes Jesus was a man, a carpenter by hand |
| [02:23.22] |
His followers true and brave |
| [02:26.90] |
One dirty coward called Judas Iscariot |
| [02:30.64] |
Has laid poor Jesus Christ in his grave |
