Lazarus
Well, the high sher iff he told the deputy.
He said a, 'Go out and bring me Laz'rus.'
Well, the high sheriff he told the deputy,
he said - a, 'Go out and bring me Laz'rus.'
Bring him dead or alive, oh Lord.
Bring him dead or alive.
And the deputy began to wonder
Just where in the world they could find him.
And the deputy began to wonder
Just where in the world they could find him.
Well, I don't know, oh Lord.
Well, I just don't know.
They found poor Lazarus
They found him up between two mountains.
They found poor Lazarus
They found him up between two mountains.
And they brought him down, oh Lord,
They brought him down.
And what they, what they used
And what they used was a great big number.
And what they, what they used
And what they used was a great big number.

Number forty-four, oh Lord,
Number forty-four.
And they took poor Lazarus
They took him down to the commisary counter.
And they took poor Lazarus
They took him down to the commisary counter.
And they lowered him down, oh Lord,
And they lowered him down.
And Lazarus' poor mother
Well, she couldn't go to the funeral.
And Lazarus' poor mother
Well, she couldn't go to the funeral.
She didn't have no shoes, oh Lord,
She didn't have no shoes.
I tell you, high sheriff,
I tell you one of your men is going to leave you.
I tell you, high sheriff,
I tell you one of your men is going to leave you.
Come next pay day, oh Lord,
Come next pay day.
