Lyrics

Lazarus said to the deputy Bring me Lazarus Lazarus said to the deputy Bring me Lazarus Dead or alive Great God, dead or alive Well the deputy wondered Where in the world to find him Well the deputy wondered Where in the world to find him I don't know Great God, I just don't know Well they found poor Lazarus In between two mountains Well they found poor Laz' In between two mountains And they blowed him down Great God, they blowed him down Oh Lazarus said to the deputy I ain't never been arrested Well Lazarus said to the deputy I ain't never been arrested By no one man By no one man Well they killed poor Lazarus With a mighty number Well they killed poor Lazarus With a mighty number The number forty-five The number forty-five Well they took poor Lazarus To the commissary counter Lord, they took poor Lazarus To the commissary counter Then they walked away Oh they walked away Well Lazarus' poor mother She come runnin' She come runnin' She come runnin' Captain, have you heard? Your man gonna leave you Captain, have you heard? Now your man gonna leave you Come payday Great God, come payday
