Hallelujah, I'm a Bum" (Roud 7992) is an American folk song that responds with humorous sarcasm to unhelpful moralizing about the circumstance of being a hobo. Some verses, though, may have been written by a Kansas City hobo known only as "One-Finger Ellis," who scribbled it on the wall of his prison cell in 1897.

I'm a bum, Hallelujah bum again Hallelujah! give us a handout and revive us again. I went to a house and I knocked on the door A lady says, " Bum, bum, you been here before". I went to a house, and I asked for some bread A lady says, " Bum, bum, the baker is dead". Oh why dont you work like other folk do How the hell can I work when there's no work to do. Oh why don't you work like other folks do How can I get a job when you're holding down two. Oh, I love my boss and my boss loves me And that is the reason I'm so hungry. Oh, I like my boss, he's a good friend of mine And that's why I'm starving out in the breadline. Whenever I get all the money I earn The boss will be broke and to work he must turn. Final chorus Hallelujah! I'm a bum, Hallelujah bum again Hallelujah! give us sixpence for Christ's sake Amen. Written by Harry McClintock, just before the end of the 19th century.
Hallelujah, bum again, Hallelujah, gimme a handout. And you'll be my friend. Now, why don't you settle down and get yourself a wife?" "I'd rather be a BUM for the rest of me life!"
