The Tramp On The Street
(Grady Cole & Hazel Cole, Kinky Friedman)
Only a tramp was Lazarusâ"š¬â"ž¢ sad fate
He who lay down by the rich manâ"š¬â"ž¢ 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 youâ"š¬â"ž¢ ve rambled this cold world alone
Just a-prayinâ"š¬â"ž¢ 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.
