He Never Said A Mumblin' Word
"And He Never Said a Mumblin' Word" (also known as "They Hung Him on a Cross", truncations to as little as Mumblin' Word and sometimes "Crucifixion" or "Easter") is an American spiritual folk song.
The song narrates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, detailing how he was nailed to the cross, "whopped up the hill", stabbed in the side, bowed his head and died, all the while keeping a dignified silence. Like all traditional music, the lyrics vary from version to version but maintain the same story.
