  • Recorded by: hank williams, sr.
  • Writers: grady and hazel cole capo: 1st fret/key: eb/play: d
  • [d] only a tramp was lazarus sad [g] fate
  • He who lay do-[a7] wn at the rich mans [d] gate
  • He begged for the crumbs from the rich man to [g] eat
  • He was only a [d] tramp found [a7] dead on the [d] street. [d] he was some mothers darlin, he was some mothers [g] son
  • Once he was [a7] fair and once he was [d] young
  • And some mother rocked him, her darlin to [g] sleep
  • But they left him to [d] die like a [a7] tramp on the [d] street. jesus, he died on calvarys tree
  • He shed his lifes blood for you and for me
  • They pierced his side and then his feet
  • And they left him to die like a tramp on the street. he was marys own darlin, he was gods chosen son
  • Once he was fair and once he was young
  • Mary, she rocked him, her darlin to sleep
  • But they left him to die like a tramp on the street. if jesus should come and knock on your door
  • For a place to come in, or bread from your store
  • Would you welcome him in, or turn him away
  • Then the gods would deny you on the great judgement day.
