Lyrics Dead Or Alive (Poor Lazarus) - Woody Guthrie



Well, the new sher′ff wrote me a letter,
Yes, the new sher'ff wrote me a letter:
Come up and see me dead or alive,
Come up and see me dead or alive.
Dead or alive it′s a hard road; it's a hard road dead or alive.
Well, he even sent me my picture:
Yes, he even sent me my picture;
How do I look, boys, dead or alive?
How do I look, boys, dead or alive?
Dead or alive it's a hard road; it′s a hard road dead or alive.
Well, he said he would pay expenses:
Yes, he said he would pay expenses;
Dead or alive, no thank!
New sheriff, I′m a poor boy
Dead or alive it's a hard road; it′s a hard road dead or alive.
Well, he said he would feed and clothe me;
Yes, mhe said he would feed and clothe me;
Dead or alive, no thanks!
New sheriff, I'm a poor boy
Dead or alive it′s a hard road; it's a hard road dead or alive.
Well, I′m sorry I can't come, sheriff;
Yes, I'm sorry but I can′t come, sheriff;
Dead or alive, no thanks!
New sheriff, I′m a poor boy
Dead or alive it's a hard road; it′s a hard road dead or alive.
I don't like your hard-rock hotel;
I don′t like your hard-rock hotel;
Dead or alive, new sheriff
No thanks, I'm a poor boy
Dead or alive it′s a hard road; it's a hard road dead or alive.
I gotta go down and see my little sweet thing;
Gonna go down and see my little sweet thing;
Dead or alive, yes, Lord!
No thanks, new sheriff.
Dead or alive it's a hard road; it′s a hard road dead or alive.
