Guthrie Woody - Jesus Christ lyrics

Jesus Christ was a man that traveled through the land Hard working man and brave He said to the rich, "Give your goods to the poor" So they laid Jesus Christ in His grave Yes, Jesus was a man, a carpenter by hand His followers true and brave One dirty coward called Judas Iscariot Laid poor Jesus in His grave He went to the preacher, He went to the sheriff Told them all the same "Sell all of your j**elry and give it to the poor" So they laid Jesus Christ in His grave When Jesus come to town, all the working folks around Believed what he did say The bankers and the preachers, they nailed Him on the cross And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave And the working people followed him around Singing and shouting gay But the cops and soldiers nailed him in the air And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave Well the people held their breath when they heard about his d**h Everybody wondered why It was the landlord and the soldiers that they hired To nail Jesus Christ in the sky This song was made in New York City Of rich man and preachers, and slaves If Jesus was to preach like He preached in Galillee They would lay Jesus Christ in His grave Yes, Jesus was a man and a carpenter by hand His followers true and brave One dirty coward called Judas Iscariot As laid poor Jesus in His grave
