C .............................. G Jesus Christ was a man who travelled through the land ........................................... D7 A hard-working man and brave; ....... G ........................................ C ................. G He said to the rich, “Give your goods to the poor”, .................................... D7 ............. G But they laid Jesus Christ in his grave. C ............................... G Jesus was a man, a carpenter by hand, ........................ Em ......... A7 D7 His followers true and brave; ........ G ..................................... C .......... G One dirty little coward called Judas Iscariot .............................. D7 ............ G Has laid Jesus Christ in his grave. He went to the preacher, He went to the sheriff, He told them all the same; “Sell all your jewelry and give it to the poor”- But they laid Jesus Christ in His grave. When Jesus came to town, all the working folk around Believed what He did say; The bankers and the preachers they nailed him on a cross, Then they laid Jesus Christ in His grave. The poor workin’ people, they followed Him around, They sang and they shouted gay; The cops and the soldiers, they nailed Him in the air And they laid Jesus Christ in His grave. Well, the people held their breath when they heard about His death. And everybody wondered why, It was the landlord and the soldiers that he hired To nail Jesus Christ in the sky. This song was written in New York city Of rich man, preacher and slave, But if Jesus was to preach like He preached at Galilee They would lay Jesus Christ in His grave.
