Jesus Christ been here and gone What a painful price to pay He's left his life in a thunderstorm Tears cold dark eyes upon Swing pendulum, swing low Got no place to call my own Oh my Lord don't you bother me I'm as tired as a man can be I'm as tired as a man can be
Jesus Christ been here and gone What a painful place to leave With frost on the limbs of a cherry tree This cold, cold wind is buryin' me Swing pendulum, swing slow Got no time to call my own Oh my Lord don't you bother me I'm as tired as a man can be I'm as tired as a man can be
