(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.
