• HALLELUJAH! I'M A BUM

Rejoice and be glad, for the spring time has come,
We can throw down out shovels and go on the bum
Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

The springtime has come and I'm just out of jail,
Without any money, without any bail

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

I went to a house and I wrapped on the door,
And the lady said, "Bum, bum, you've been here before."

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

I like Jim Hill, He's a good friend of mine,
That is why I am hiking down Jim Hill's main line

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

I went to a house, and I asked for some bread,
And the lady said "Bum, bum, the baker is dead."

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

Oh why don't you work like other men do?
Now how can I work when there's no work to do?

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

Why don't you save all the money you earn?
If I didn't eat, I'd have money to burn

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again

I don't like work, and work don't like me,
and that is the reason I am so hungry

Hallelujah, I'm a bum, Hallelujah, bum again,
Hallelujah, give us a handout, To revive us again
