I was Walkin' down the Jericho And every mile I traveled showed And I'm walkin' down the road
But I kept on walkin' Walkin' the Jericho road And the sun set red fields of gold And I'm walkin' down the Jericho
Well, Joshua fit the battle, that's how the story The walls a-tumb-a-lin' down I know But I'm walkin', walkin' down the road
I met my mother down the Jericho road Tears in her and her head hung low And she was walkin' the Jericho road
And I met my father down the Jericho road His bent over from a heavy load And he was down the Jericho road
I said, "Papa, you know me? Won't you lay burden down?" He shook his head and me, "Son, you better turn around" He kept on walkin', down the Jericho road
Ooh, walkin' down the Ooh, walkin' the Jericho Ooh, walkin' the Jericho, ooh, ooh
I met my Walk, walkin' the Jericho road And his hands were bloody but his face was And he was walkin' down the road
I met my Walk, walkin' down the road a baby in her arms that I'd never seen She was walkin' down the Jericho
She said, "It's just a little child I found along the way I'll raise him as my own and he'll us all someday" Kept on walkin', walkin' down the road
I met my (Walk, walkin' down the road) I met my (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road)
I met my (Walk, walkin' down the road) I met my (Walk, walkin' down the road)
I said sister (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road) I hello brother (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road)
I said hello (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road) I said hello (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road)
