I'm a dead man lying cheap
Knock you right out of your seat
I'm a dead man, blow it on my hands
Greater [?] on my feet
I'm a dead man, made you a promise
I will take you the promised land
I'm a dead man, carry your sword
I will take it just as far as I can
You're on the river and I'm sailing home
These gentle waves lead us towards Babylon
And in the distance I could hear your song
Oh, Lord, please let me die on the river of Babylon
Oh, praise His name on this day
For, Hallelujah, He brings me the joy of life
And on my way I will strive to take a man's life
In the name of my Lord, give me the strength
I'm a dead man lying cheap
Knock you right out of your seat
I'm a dead man, blow it on my hands
Greater [?] on my feet
I'm a dead man, made you a promise
I will take you the promised land
I'm a dead man, carry your sword
I will take it just as far as I can
