Jesus he died on calvary's tree      Nails in his hands and nails in his feet. Mary she rocked him her little baby to sleep.     But they left him to die like a tramp on the street.      Only a poor man was laz'rus that day When he lay down at the rich man's gate. He begged for the crumbs of the rich man to eat;       He was only a tramp found dead on the street.     He was some mother's darlin' he was some mother's son; Once he was fair and once he was young. Some mother rocked him her little baby to sleep;      But they left him to die like a tramp on the street. Jesus who died on calvary's tree. Shed his life's blood for you and for me. They pierced his side his hands and his feet.       But they left him to die like a tramp on the street. Jesus he died on calvary's tree Nails in his hands and nails in his feet. Mary she rocked him her little baby to sleep.     But they left him to die like a tramp n the street.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la souffrance de Jésus sur la croix, soulignant la douleur des clous qui transpercent ses mains et ses pieds. Elle fait également référence à Marie, sa mère, berçant son enfant dans un moment tendre, mais contraste avec la cruauté de la fin de sa vie. Elle raconte aussi l'histoire de Lazare, un homme misérable qui mendie à la porte d'un riche, soulignant la détresse des marginaux et la façon dont ils sont souvent ignorés et laissés pour compte. Le contexte met en lumière les thèmes de la compassion et de l'indifférence face à la souffrance humaine. La chanson interpelle sur la manière dont la société traite ceux qui sont vulnérables, rappelant que derrière chaque personne en détresse se cache une histoire, des souvenirs d'amour et des rêves. Ainsi, elle nous invite à réfléchir sur notre propre comportement envers les plus démunis.
