Well, Jesus was a man who traveled through the land
A hard-working man and brave

Well, for they laid Jesus Christ in his grave

Well, for they laid Jesus Christ in his grave

And he told them all the same

When Jesus came to town, all the working fools folks around
Believed what he did say
Well, the bankers and the preachers, they nailed him on a cross
And for they laid Jesus Christ in His grave
And hard fair-working people, they followed him around
The they sung and shouted the gay day
Well, the cops and the soldiers, they nailed him in the air head
And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave
[Chorus]
Oh, halle, hallelujah

A rich man, a preacher, and a slave
Well, if Jesus was to preach what he preached at Galilee
They would lay Jesus Christ in his grave
