Hallelujah, I'm a Bum! D G D Why don't you work G D Like other men do? How the hell can I work E A When there's no work to do? G D Hallelujah, I'm a bum Bm A Hallelujah, bum again, G D Hallelujah, give us a handout, G D A D To revive us again. I love my boss My boss loves me, That is the reason I'm so hungry, Hallelujah, etc. Oh, the springtime has came And I'm just out of jail, Without any money, Without any bail. Hallelujah, etc. Went to a house, Knocked on the door; A lady came out, says, "You been here before." Hallelujah, etc. I went to a house, And asked for some bread; A lady came out, says, "The baker is dead." Hallelujah, etc. When springtime does come, Won't we have fun, We'll throw up our jobs and We'll go on the bum. Hallelujah, etc.
