A Tramp on the Street (D)
by Hank Williams
D G
Only a tramp was Lazarus sad fate
A7 D
He who lay down at the rich man's gate
G
He begged for the crumbs from the rich man to eat
D A7 D
He was only a tramp found dead on the street
G
He was some mother's darlin' he was some mother's son
A7 D
Once he was fair and once he was young
G
Some mother rocked him her darlin' to sleep
D A7 D
But they left him to die like a tramp on the street
G
Jesus who died on Calvary's tree
A7 D
Shed His life's blood for you and for me
G
They pierced His sides His hands and His feet
D A7 D
And they left Him to die like a tramp on the street
G
He was Mary's own darlin' he was God's chosen Son
A7 D
Once He was fair and once He was young
G
Mary she rocked Him her darlin' to sleep
D A7 D
But they left Him to die like a tramp on the street
G
If Jesus should come and knock on your door
A7 D
For a place to come in or bread from your store
G
Would you welcome Him in or turn Him away
D A7 D
Then the God's would deny you on the Great Judgment Day
