The kid he came from Hazareth His father's only son When he came out from Hazareth He was a hellhound on the run Hellhound on the run Turn silently your heel and tread softly by the way For here has passed the saviour Christ this very day Know all that you are sinners balanced by your crimes It is all a great arrangement your signing of the times Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Messiah oh what wine you came just in time Messiah oh what wine you came just in time Messiah oh what wine you came just in time I'll remember Hazareth when you face me with your gun For when you aim you'll shoot to kill That hellhound on the run Hellhound on the run Hellhound run run Run hellhound run
