Hallelujah, I'm a Bum

1. Oh, why don't I work
Like the other men do?
How the heck can I work
When the skies are so blue?

CH: Hallelujah! I'm a Bum
Hallelujah! bum again.
Hallelujah! Give us a handout,
And revive me again.



2. Oh, I love my boss
And my boss loves me.
And that is the reason
I'm so hun-gar-y.

3. Oh, the springtime has come
And I'm out of jail,
Without any money,
Without any bail.

4. I went to a house
And I asked for some bread.
A lady came out, says
"The Baker is dead."

5. I went to a house
And I knocked on the door.
The lady came out, says
"you've been here before."

6. When springtime does come
Oh, won't we have fun.
We'll throw up our jobs
And we'll go on the bum.
