Poor Lazarus |
| Dead or alive, it’s a hard road |
| Dead or alive, it’s a hard road |
| Dead or alive |
| Well the new sheriff sent me a letter |
| Oh the new sheriff sent me a letter |
| Come up and see me, dead or alive |
| Come up and see me, dead or alive |
| Well, he even sent me my picture (2x) |
| How do I look, boys, dead or alive (2x) |
| Well he said he would pay expenses |
| Dead or alive, hey, hey |
| Well, he said he would clothe and feed me |
| Dead or alive, poor boy |
| Well I’m sorry that I can’t come sheriff |
| Dead or alive, poor boy |
| I don’t like your hard rock hotel |
| Dead or alive, no sheriff |
| I’ve gotta go and see my little sweet thing |
| Dead or alive, yes sheriff |
