Arranger: | Carl Haywood (b. 1949) |
1 They crucified my Lord, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
They crucified my Lord, and He never said a mumbalin’ word.
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
2 They nailed Him to a tree, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
They nailed Him to a tree, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
3 They pierced Him in the side, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
They pierced Him in the side, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
4 The blood came streamin’ down, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
The blood came streamin’ down, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
5 He hung His head and died, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
He hung His head and died, and He never said a mumbalin’ word;
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
