101. He Nevuh Said a Mumbalin' Word

1 They crucified my Lord,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
They crucified my Lord,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
Not a word, not a word, not a word.

2 They nailed Him to the tree,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
They nailed Him to the tree,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
Not a word, not a word, not a word.

3 They pierced Him in the side,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
They pierced Him in the side,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
Not a word, not a word, not a word.

4 The blood came streamin' down,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
The blood came streamin' down,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
Not a word, not a word, not a word.

5 He hung His head and died,
An' He nevuh said a mumbalin’ word,
He hung His head and died,
An' He nevuh said a mumbling' word,
Not a word, not a word, not a word.
