We’ll Sing Hallelujah

[Verse 1]
Man is like a rusty wheel
On a rusty cart
And he sings his song as he rattles along
And then he falls apart

[Chorus]
And we'll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears

[Verse 2]
Man is like a briar
He covers himself in thorns
And he laughs like a clown when his fortune's down
And his clothes are ragged and torn

[Chorus]
And we'll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
A man is like a three-string fiddle
Hanging on the wall
And he sings when somebody scrapes on the bow
Or he can't sing at all

[Chorus]
And we'll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears

[Verse 4]
A man is like his father
He wishes that he'd never been born
And he longs for the time when the clocks will chime
And he's gone for evermore

[Chorus]
And we'll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears
And we'll sing hallelujah
At the turning of the year
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears
And we'll work all day in the old-fashioned way
Till the shining star appears
