The Tramp On The Street lyrics
Song information
Artist: Kinky Friedman
Album: Old Testaments & New Revelations
Lyrics
(Grady cole & hazel cole, kinky friedman)
Only a tramp was lazarus' sad fate
He who lay down by the rich man' s gate
He begged for some crumbs from the rich man to eat
He was only a tramp found dead on the street
If jesus he comes on and knocks on your door
Will he find love and kindness or hatred and war ?
Will you turn him away with nothing to eat ?
Will you leave him to die like a tramp on the street ?
Poor jewboy you' ve rambled this cold world alone
Just a-prayin' that heaven is no place like home
May the good lord he bless you and keep you in health
And remember that jesus was a jewboy hisself
