Listen, this is my first submission, and as far as I can tell its accurate. Feel free to correct as needed. Played with a bit of country and gospel strumming. Enjoy! - Cliff (djklutchis@hotmail.com) Well Jesus was a man Who travelled through the land A hard working man and brave Well He said to the rich Give your money to the poor Well they laid Jesus Christ in His grave Halle, hallelujah Halle, hallelujah Halle, hallelujah Well they laid Jesus Christ in His grave Well He went to the preacher He went to them all He told them all the same He said sell all your jewellery And give it to the poor Well they laid Jesus Christ in His grave When Jesus came to town All the working fools around Believed what he did say Well, the bankers and the preachers They nailed him on a cross And they laid Jesus Christ in His grave And fair working people They followed him around They sung and shouted the day Well the cops and the soldiers They nailed him in the air Well they laid Jesus Christ in His grave, woah Well this song was written In New York city By a rich man preacher, and a slave Well if Jesus was to preach What he preached at Galilee They would lay Jesus Christ in His Grave
