Rejoice and be glad For the springtime has come We can throw all our shows And go out bum Hallelujah! i'm a bum Hallelujah bum again Hallelujah give us a handout to revive us again The spring time has come And i'm just out if jail We're out any money We're out any bail (chorus) I went to a house And i rept on the door And the lady says bum, Bum you've been here before (chorus) I like jim hill He's a good friend of mine That's why i'm hiking down Jim hill's main line (chorus) I went to a house And i asked for some bread And the lady says bum, Bum the baker is dead (chorus) Why don't you work? Like other man do, Now, how can i work When there's no work to do? (chorus) Why don't you save All the money you earn? And if i didn't eat I'd have money to burn (chorus) I don't like work And the work don't like me And there's the reason I'm so hungry! (chorus)
