Harry McClintock - Hallelujah! I'm A Bum lyrics

Your rating:

Rejoice and be glad for the Springtime has come
We can throw down our 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 rapped on the door
And the lady says, "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 says, "Bum, bum, the baker is dead"
Hallelujah! I'm a bum, Hallelujah! Bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout to revive us again

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
