Rejoice and be glad, for the springtime has come
We can throw down our shovels and go on the bum
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
The springtime has come and I'm just out of jail
Without any money, without any bail
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
I went to a house and I rapped on the door
And the lady says, "bum, bum, you've been here before"
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
I like Jim Hill, he's a good friend of mine
That is why I am hiking down Jim Hill's main line
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
I went to a house and I asked for some bread
And the lady says, "bum, bum, the baker is dead"
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
Why don't you work like other men do
Now, how can I work when there's no work to do?
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
Why don't you save all the money you earn?
If I didn't eat, I'd have money to burn
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
I don't like work and work don't like me
And that is the reason I am so hungry
Hallelujah, I'm a bum
Hallelujah, bum again
Hallelujah, give us a handout
To revive us again
