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
