Laz'rus

Poor Ol' Laz’rus shake your bones
You come from the world of water and stone
Locked in the belly of the earth all alone
Poor Ol' Laz’rus shake your bones
Poor Ol' Laz’rus ain’t it a sight
In that world of endless night
Your dreams are filled this air and light
Poor Ol' Laz’rus ain’t it a sight?
Poor Ol' Laz’rus you know it’s true
The earth is gonna claim her due
This world was made by men like you
Poor Ol' Laz’rus you know it’s true
Poor Ol' Laz’rus that third day
When they raised your body from the clay
Turned the hand of death away
Poor Ol' Laz’rus on that great day
Poor Ol' Laz’rus the ages gonna roll
Squeeze your body into coal
Break your back but not your soul
Poor Ol' Laz’rus the ages gonna roll
Poor Ol' Laz’rus shake your bones
You come from the world of water and stone
Nine men a-walkin' that road back home
Poor Ol' Laz’rus shake your bones
