Lyrics
Poor man Lazrus sick and disabled.
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame.
He had to eat crumbs from the rich man's table.
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
‘cause I'm tormented in the flame.
Chorus:
I'm tormented in the flame.
I'm tormented in the flame.
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame.
Rich man Divies he lived so well.
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame.
And when he died he went straight to hell.
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame.
(Chorus)
I love to shout, I love to sing!
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame.
I love to praise my heav'nly King!
Dip your finger in the water,
come and, cool my tongue,
'cause I'm tormented in the flame
(Chorus)
